Moreno Valley also anticipates getting $745,000 in HOME Investment Partnership funding, and approximately $175,000 in Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funding. All of those will be spendable during the 2019-2020 fiscal year.

Block grant funding must be used to help low and moderate income residents or neighborhoods, eliminate blight, or be spent on emergencies
