CDBG State’s Program and Non-Entitlement Grants obligations in Hawaii

The catalog title already names Hawaii; the join still needs both sides

This tie keeps USAspending assistance where CFDA 14.228 meets Hawaii place of performance. The dollar book is $1,650,071,379. The award count is 7. HUD’s CDBG State’s Program line includes a Hawaii-specific non-entitlement component in the official catalog title. That wording does not replace the join: the page still pairs the CFDA number with Hawaii place-of-performance coding. Seven prime records do not mean seven islands received equal shares.

The join does not prove that Hawaii’s housing-cost index, neighbor-island infrastructure gap, or a particular disaster recovery pipeline caused $1,650,071,379. Those are other series. This packet does not split housing rehab from public facilities. Correlation is not causation.

A reader who treats the cell as Hawaii’s full HUD obligation book has left the CFDA-by-state definition. Entitlement CDBG (a different catalog number) is not this cell. The 7 figure is a record count, including modifications, not a project count.

Seven awards and a blended mean

Seven awards under $1,650,071,379 imply a mean near $235,724,483 per award. State-administered CDBG actions of this size can produce that kind of average when multi-year or supplemental awards share the tape. The packet has no median and no county split among Honolulu, Hawaii, Maui, and Kauai.

Cite both columns. USAspending.gov is the source; SpendingVault does not recast the mean as a typical small-town CDBG project.

Hawaii’s 14.228 cell versus the statewide stack

Hawaii’s state hub stacks every CFDA with performance coded to the state. CDBG State’s Program is one HUD line. $1,650,071,379 is not Hawaii’s all-program total. The nationwide CFDA 14.228 page includes every state, so it is not this cell—even though the catalog title mentions Hawaii.

Place-of-performance on a state CDBG award usually sits on Hawaii even when activities occur in non-entitlement communities. This packet does not reallocate dollars to counties. Read the overlay as a coding view of 7 awards.

Obligations versus completed activities

The $1,650,071,379 figure is an obligation sum. Construction and rehab draws can trail the federal obligation. SpendingVault does not publish a 14.228-in-Hawaii outlay total in this packet. Mixing ACS housing-cost or homelessness statistics with this award file leaves the USAspending series.

Cite the join as CFDA 14.228 × Hawaii, $1,650,071,379, 7 awards, obligations only.

Where the table lives

The Hawaii × Community Development Block Grants/State’s Program overlay is the table view. Recipient slices on that hub still sum toward $1,650,071,379 on 7 awards. The Hawaii spending page and the CFDA 14.228 program page are the parents. The Hawaii programs index and the ties index list other pairs.

None of those links convert the cell into a project count or into outlays this packet omits.

What Hawaii’s CDBG state-program join is not

Community Development Block Grants/State’s Program and Non-Entitlement Grants in Hawaii, coded to Hawaii, are not a ranking of counties by housing cost and not a count of entitlement cities. The $1,650,071,379 figure is the CFDA 14.228 × Hawaii cell. Seven awards describe state-administered CDBG filing, not seven islands with equal shares. The catalog title’s Hawaii clause does not replace the place-of-performance join.

Entitlement CDBG is a different catalog number. Honolulu urban entitlement activity is not this cell unless it also carries 14.228, which this packet does not claim. Cite 14.228 and Hawaii together, keep the obligation label, and keep the 7-award count. Construction and rehab draws can lag the federal obligation.

Hawaii’s CDBG State’s Program cell also does not include IDIS activity IDs, neighbor-island project lists, or entitlement-city CDBG that uses a different catalog number. Those files live with HUD and the state. SpendingVault cites USAspending.gov obligations only: CFDA 14.228 × Hawaii, $1,650,071,379, 7 awards. If a later extract revises the seven-row tape, the implied mean near $235,724,483 moves with it. Quote the packet facts and the overlay path rather than a housing-cost story.

Questions

How much CDBG State’s Program spending is in Hawaii?

USAspending.gov shows $1,650,071,379 in CFDA 14.228 obligations coded to Hawaii across 7 awards. The join uses the program number and Hawaii place of performance. The total is obligations, not outlays.

Why does the program name already say Hawaii?

HUD’s catalog title for CFDA 14.228 includes a Hawaii non-entitlement clause. This page still joins that CFDA to Hawaii place of performance. The extract counts 7 award records. The implied mean is about $235,724,483 per award from the two packet facts.

Is $1.65 billion Hawaii’s full federal spending?

No. $1,650,071,379 is only the CDBG State’s Program and Non-Entitlement Grants in Hawaii cell. Other CFDA programs with Hawaii place of performance sit on the statewide hub. Nationwide 14.228 is not limited to this cell.

Do these obligations equal completed CDBG projects?

No. $1,650,071,379 is an obligation sum. Outlays are a different USAspending series. Construction and rehab draws can lag the federal obligation.
