Consolidated Plan Corvallis became an entitlement city for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program in 2000, and a participating jurisdiction for the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) in 2001. With this status, the City receives annual funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) of nearly $1 million. A FY 2008-09 through FY 2012-13 Consolidated Plan has been developed to provide guidance for the City's use of these federal funds over the next five years.

General types of projects and activities now being planned for FY 10-11 will include:
