The Village of Ansley received $39,000 in 2023 for comprehensive plan and zoning ordinance updates and the completion of a community housing study.

$40,000.00 for the comprehensive plan, zoning ordinances, and housing study and $3,000 for general administration services. The remaining $4,000 was to be paid by the Village of Ansley. The awarded amount of $39, 000 benefited low- and moderate-income people in Ansley. No displacement of people occurred as a result of this CDBG activity.
The purpose of the public hearing is to accept comments about the CDBG grant-funded project as it nears completion. All interested parties are invited to attend this public hearing at which time you will have an opportunity to be heard regarding the Village’s planning grant project.
