Goals of the eCon Planning Suite

1. Promote market-driven, leveraged, housing and community development planning – Ease data collection burden

2. Streamline grants management cycle into a cohesive planning framework – Incorporate Con Plan and Action Plan into same

system as IDIS and CAPER

3. Make data available to general public and local stakeholders

CPD Maps

• Online mapping tool –Easy and as accessible as other Internet map sites –Widget functionality

• Provides latest data sets available from HUD • Exports directly to Con Plan template

8

Con Plan Template

• Data Entry template integrated into IDIS –Action Plan optional until Con Plan template used

• Two scenarios –Con Plan and 1st Year Action Plan –Stand-alone Action Plan

• 4 versions of the template –State Grantees –Entitlements –Consortia –Regional Strategy

CPD Maps

• Display and analyze data across census tracts and jurisdictions

• Support place-based strategy – Appropriate programs for neighborhood conditions – Target resources for greater impact

• Communicate complex geographic data to stakeholders and citizens

11

Targeting is a fundamental principle for CPD Programs…

“[States and cities]…are encouraged to identify locally designated areas where geographically targeted revitalization

efforts are carried out through multiple activities in a concentrated and

coordinated manner.” -24 CFR 91.215(g) and 91.315(g)
