for projects utilizing federal funds.

writing and administration services for Federally Funded Projects related to community and economic

development. This procurement could include Community Development Block Grants (CDBG)

including Innovative projects, Redevelopment Fund Projects (RDF), Community Housing Improvement

Program (CHIP), Home Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), Employment Incentive Program
