- Description:
- The purpose of this paper is to objectively analyze the administration of Community Development Block Grant Program in the City of East Point. Also, this paper 1s intended to assist the Community Development Department in evaluating whether the Community Development Program has been efficiently and effectively administered. The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 provided resources on a lump sum basis to cities to use in developing viable, safe and sanitary living environment and expand economic opportunities for the low and moderate income persons. In 1975, the City of East Point received its first Community Development Block Grant to spend as it saw fit on Community development activities. As a result, significant changes and developments have occurred in the City, but a number of problems still exist in some aspects of program administration. Performance reports, close out reports, personal interviews and participant observation provided some of the data for the study. Also, books, journal and congressional reports provided data on the content and legal basis for the Community Development Program.
