Information by State  Print version

The annual conference of Wisconsin CDBG entitlement grantees was held in Milwaukee in September. All twenty-two grantees were represented with a total of some fifty persons attending. A major topic of discussion was the Consolidated Plan Improvement Initiative (CPII.) Nearly all of the grantees volunteered to take part in the pilot to test the new automated system in 2004 and 2005. HUD's Wisconsin Community Planning and Development Division is one of three HUD offices in the nation helping to develop and pilot CPII.
