Eight Valley cities working together with Maricopa County to take in federal grant money for spending on affordable housing.

The consortium has set up multiple ways to give feedback as officials work on a plan for a federal housing agency.

The ways include virtual meetings on affordable housing, community development, public services and homelessness scheduled for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons.

Nonprofits, governments and businesses can also fill out a Stakeholder Feedback Survey. And residents can also share their thoughts in a Community Needs Assessment Survey.

The consortium says feedback is essential for shaping future grant spending, and responses will help build a five year plan due for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
