Effective immediately, please use the modified version of the CDBG LMI Survey Worksheet available on this Website at: www.dlg.ky.gov/NR/rdonlyres/505D7F5A-A60B-4A9B-A7ED-4E5A0340322A/0/AppendixBLMIWorksheetUpdated.xls). 

The modification consists of the addition of question #8 which pertains to the total number of persons in households surveyed.  The LMI Worksheet is required for all 2013 CDBG Applications where surveying is used to establish LMI benefit. 

The previously used LMI Worksheet will not be accepted after 6/13/2013.  Contact Travis Weber at (502)573-2382 if you have questions.
