<br />The next two to three weeks are particularly important, since it is the time <br />in which Congress will be considering H.R. 1 on the CDBG and housing programs, <br />and the time in which HUD must again prepare proposed regulations for the <br />"Small Cities" program. If you agree that the regul ations proposed by HUD <br />will adversely affect the state's CDBG program, please put your comments in <br />writing to Secretary Samuel Pierce, Department of Housing and Urban <br />Development; 451 7th Street, SW, Room 7100; Washington, D.C. 20001.
