Gilbert Town Council has approved a $1.1 million federal grant agreement that will fund emergency home repairs for low-income residents, services for people experiencing homelessness and improvements in the Heritage District.
The council accepted the $1,103,362 Community Development Block Grant agreement with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development at its Nov. 3 meeting as part of its consent agenda, without discussion.
The funding covers fiscal year 2026-27 and will support four areas of community development, with the largest allocation going toward helping homeowners address health and safety hazards, according to council documents.
