The ConPlan, or Consolidated Plan, is five year plan that is submitted to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The HUD website states the following:
The Consolidated Plan is designed to help states and local jurisdictions to assess their affordable housing and community development needs and market conditions, and to make data-driven, place-based investment decisions. The consolidated planning process serves as the framework for a community-wide dialogue to identify housing and community development priorities that align and focus funding from the CPD formula block grant programs.
