9. 9 Data Reporting Federally and State required data, such as
number of housing units
number of jobs
number of persons
HUD’s National CDBG Database States collect data to complete the reports for HUD and Congress. This data goes into HUD’s national database- the IDIS database. It is crucial to have the most up to date and accurate data for that IDIS database, it is the basis for reporting program results, as well as for monitoring compliance.
UGLGs must maintain information to support monitoring and show that the project is in compliance with the HUD guidelines
Accurate data is CRITICAL to continued CDBG funding by Congress.
