Locally, Jamestown will get just over $302,000 while Dunkirk will recieve an estimated $111,000.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Jamestown Also received over $705,000 in additional CDBG money to assist the community with dealing with COVID-19. That funding was provided to offer both rental assistance to qualifying applicants, as well as small business funding to help various businesses in the community.<\/p>\n

City Development Director Crystal Surdyk<\/strong> announced in August that all of the funding from that first round of COVID-19 CDBG money had been allocated. She also told WRFA on Wednesday the city will likely use the latest round of funding for the COVID-19 programs developed earlier this year, but will have to wait on further clarification from the regional HUD office on the specific process to follow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
