Federal Coronavirus Relief Funds were disseminated to cities to help maintain essential public services during the pandemic. The funding amount was determined by City population. City of Camas received $722,700. To help us allocate these funds, we are asking citizens to try out our new software called Balancing Act.
Balancing Act will let you see the unbudgeted expenses related to COVID-19 and then indicate which of those expenses you prioritize reimbursing with relief funds.
Each year the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to be used for projects and activities that serve low to moderate income populations. CDBG funds are awarded through a competitive process through Clark County Community Development. Camas competes with other municipalities in Clark County for a small pool of available funds. Proposed projects usually include rehabilitation of two or three blocks of public streets, sidewalks and curb ramps. See past projects before and after pictures below.
