Community Development Council

The Community Development Council, est. 1974, was established for the purpose of assisting the City Council in setting priorities for projects to be initiated with Federal funding and complying with Federal grant requirements and limitations of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. It reviews the various proposed Federal projects and plans for community development and makes recommendations to the City Council with regard to such projects and plans toward the goal of providing decent, safe and sanitary housing for low and moderate income families in Fort Worth.
