$233,692 to West Des Moines from HUD
WASHINGTON — Senator Chuck Grassley today said that West Des Moines will receive a $233,692 grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The funding comes from the Community Development Block Grants program.
“These funds will help provide decent, safe housing low- and moderate- households in West Des Moines,” Grassley said.
The Community Development Block Grants program provides annual grants to states and local governments to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment, and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for low- and moderate-income persons.
