Each year Community Development provides multiple reports to the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
5 Year Consolidated Plan
Every 5 years, the City of Raleigh drafts a Consolidated Plan. The Consolidated Plan acts like an application for funding to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). To develop the Consolidated Plan, staff uses public meetings and hearings as well as data analysis. These resources provide the necessary tools in determining the concerns and needs of the area. The plan provides a way to pinpoint the concerns and needs the department is able to focus on. To address the needs, the plan also lays out the goals that will be set to show how the needs are being addressed. Funds and resources that the Department will use are also identified. Once the Consolidated Plan has been approved by Council, it is submitted to HUD.

Annual Action Plan
Every year, the City of Raleigh has to provide an update on the 5 Year Consolidated Plan. To give this update, every year Housing and Neighborhoods Department must submit an Action Plan. The Action Plan provides information on the progress we are making to meet the needs and goals identified in the Consolidated Plan.
The Annual Action Plan is also an application for funding from HUD for the following federal programs:
• Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
• HOME Investment Partnership (HOME)
• Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG)
Here is the current 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan and a Summary of the 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan.

Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI).
The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) is a review of a jurisdiction’s laws, regulations, and administrative policies, procedures, and practices affecting the location, availability, and accessibility of housing. It is also an assessment of conditions, both public and private, affecting fair housing choice. In 2015, The City of Raleigh partnered with the Town of Cary, Raleigh Housing Authority, Wake County, and the Housing Authority of the County of Wake to prepare a regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI). In late 2019, all five entities combined to provide a comprehensive, regional analysis.
