Review of 2025/26 Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER)
Report
BACKGROUND
The Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER) is the City’s annual report on the housing and community development activities funded by two federal entitlement grants received annually by the City: the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and the HOME Investment Partnership Program Grant (HOME).
