//**Meeting Information:**//
The TAC meetings are held periodically as business indicates in the CDC Hearing Room. The TAC also meets publicly at least one time per year to approve funding recommendations to aid the Commission in setting priorities for the use of CDBG funds made available for housing and community development, public works and economic development activities within the incorporated boundaries of the municipalities. All public meetings are noticed in the Press Democrat and to the Committee members at least 72 hours in advance of the meeting.
