NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
RELATIVE TO THE APPLICATION
BY JACKSON COUNTY

Notice is hereby given that the Jackson County Board of Commissioners will hold a public hearing on October 21, 2025, at 6:25 pm, at the Jackson County Justice Center Building located at 401 Grindstaff Cove Rd. in Sylva, NC, to solicit public input on local community development and needs in relation to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding for a project in our community.
Jackson County anticipates applying to the NC Department of Commerce for a 2025 Community Development Block Grant - Neighborhood Revitalization (CDBG-NR). If awarded, the County anticipates up to $5,000,000.00 being used for the Webster Village Housing Development located at 137 Little Savannah Rd. Sylva, NC 28779, for various activities related to the site development and construction of both multi-family rentals and single-family homes for homeownership for low- and moderate-income people, if awarded. No displacement assistance will be necessary as all related activities will be for new construction.
Jackson County is committed to providing all citizens with equal access to the CDBG-NR Program, regardless of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age, familial status, or disability, and encourages the opportunity to provide oral and written comments on the County’s use of CDBG funds.
