As the lead agency and direct recipient of the CDBG funds, the OHCD is responsible to complete the planning and submission process for the County's CP. The State of Hawaii is the recipient of the HOME, ESG, HOPWA, and HTF funds and is therefore, required to submit a CP to HUD before it can receive these program funds. The County is not required to address the State's programs in its CP but will reference and include portions of the State's CP as it relates to the County's housing-related and homeless needs. Although the County of Hawaii is not a direct recipient of HOME funds, it does anticipate receiving $3,000,000 in HOME funds from the State of Hawaii, every three years. Thus, the County's OHCD manages and administers the use of HOME program funds for the County. The County expects to receive its next allocation of HOME funds in PY2021. In PY 2018, the County of Hawaii became a designated State HTF Subgrantee to develop and preserve affordable rental housing serving households with incomes at or below 30%of the area median income. The County of Hawaii anticipates receiving$1,425,000 in HTF funds from the State of Hawaii every three years. The County's OHCD manages and administers the use of HTF program funds for the County.
