Sandy Recovery Spending Dashboard

The purpose of this Dashboard is to provide data on the approximately $159.2 million in federal Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funding awarded to the State of Connecticut to assist in its recovery in the most impacted and distressed areas declared a major disaster due to Superstorm Sandy. The CDBG-DR programs are designed to meet the unmet needs of communities most impacted by Superstorm Sandy including the costs of repairs, reconstruction, mitigation, resiliency and replacement new construction that were not satisfied by private insurance, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), or other sources.

The table below shows the amount of CDBG-DR funds allocated and disbursed by program activity.
