Mifflin County Community Development Block Grant Program

How it works

Mifflin County’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program is an annual application cycle for community development projects. The county says it is accepting project summary forms for proposed projects to be funded by Mifflin County’s FFY 2026 CDBG program.

What the money covers

The county’s notice says eligible project activities include broad areas of:

• community infrastructure,
• housing rehabilitation,
• economic development, and
• public services.

The notice specifically mentions development or improvement of water, sewer, and stormwater systems; removal of architectural barriers to accessibility; public youth/senior center improvements; parks and recreation facility improvements; and reconstruction of sidewalks and streets.

The notice also says projects must result in a direct benefit to low- and moderate-income residents, and/or elimination of slums and blight, and/or elimination of urgent threats to health and safety.

Amounts and matching

The public page does not state homeowner grant amounts, matching requirements, or whether awards are paid directly to homeowners versus through municipalities or agencies.

How to apply

The county says SEDA-COG, in consultation with the Mifflin County Planning and Development Department, is accepting Project Summary Forms for proposed community development projects.

Timing and deadlines

The page reflects the FFY 2026 application cycle being open. The public page does not list an end date in the search snippet.
