The City of Idaho Falls Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program is administered by the Planning Department. This program is funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Over $300,000 is received each year to benefit low and moderate income (LMI) persons or prevent conditions of slum and blight.

Each September the city invites non-profit agencies and city departments to submit project ideas for the grant funds. City Council selects the top projects and includes them in the annual plan. Once HUD approves the plan the projects are funded and constructed.

Projects funded in the past include: Accessibility improvements for disabled homeowners, home improvements for LMI homeowners, homeless shelters, downtown improvements, sidewalks and street improvements, Senior center improvements, and services for social service organizations.
