The Consolidated Plan is prepared every five years and its planning process serves as the framework for a community-wide dialogue to identify housing, economic, and community development needs and priorities. San Diego residents were encouraged to share their insights through virtual and in-person community forums, and a community-wide survey. Please subscribe to the CDBG mailing list to be notified of future forums.

Community Engagement Process

Community Forums

The City of San Diego hosted eight public forums in October 2023 to gather input on housing, community development, public service, and economic development needs and outcomes. The forums were predominantly held in low- to moderate-income communities in order to maximize participation from city residents most likely to benefit from these federal programs. 

Community Needs Survey

The City of San Diego developed a community needs survey for both residents and stakeholders to identify respondent's greatest housing, community development, public service and economic development needs, as well as provide feedback on how the City should prioritize its funding. The survey was available online from September 1st, 2023 to January 7th, 2024 in 13 languages (English, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Arabic, Dari, Korean, Pashto, Somali, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Ukrainian, and Russian). 

Additionally, the survey was available in hard copy form in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole. In addition to promoting the survey through email blasts, social media, stakeholder networks, and community partners and organizations, the City broadcast Public Service Announcements (PSAs) promoting the survey through television ads via Cox Media California in both English and Spanish. More than 700 responses to the survey were received.

Please see the Community Engagement Findings document for a summary of the community engagement forums and survey results.
