The St. Louis County Economic and Community Development Department is seeking community input on local priorities from county residents who live outside the City of Duluth. The City of Duluth completes its own plan. The information collected will be used in the County’s Community Development Consolidated Plan, as well as the Northeast Minnesota HOME Consortium. The Northeast Minnesota HOME Consortium is made up of the counties of Cook, Itasca, Koochiching, Lake, and St. Louis. Both surveys will assist in the determination of the priorities for funding provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) over the next five years.
Public input regarding needs and priorities will guide the Advisory Committees as they review project applications and make recommendations on the awarding of community development funds. While the County is interested in all community development needs, HUD funding is restricted on what types of projects may be funded. Links to both surveys can be found below. The deadline to complete the surveys is December 1, 2024. Questions, concerns, or those looking to request a paper copy of the survey, can email communitydevelopmentinfo@stlouiscountymn.gov or call 218-733-2755.
