Travis County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) PY2024 Community Needs Survey is now available.
This survey allows residents to tell us about community needs in San Leanna, Webberville, Creedmoor, Lago Vista, West Lake Hills, Bee Cave, and the unincorporated areas of Travis County that impact low- and moderate income families, persons with disabilities, seniors, and youth. Your input will be used to help develop Travis County’s annual action plans for the approximately $1.3 million in annual CDBG funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It will also help inform other Travis County departments about needs in these areas of the county.
The survey is available online in English and Spanish (Español). In addition, copies will be available at the Travis County Community Centers or by requesting one be mailed to you.
