The grant helps homeowners of low-to-moderate income to make needed repairs on their homes.
INDIANAPOLIS - The Office of Lt. Governor Micah Beckwith and the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs today announced five Indiana communities will receive $1,310,000 in Owner Occupied Rehabilitation Grants and Planning Grants through the Community Development Block Grant program.
Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation grants are used to empower communities to directly fund homeowners of low-to-moderate income to make needed repairs on their homes.
Locally, the Town of Brookville was awarded $350,000.
Communities awarded an Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Grant will establish a program to help fund low- and moderate-income homeowners make repairs on their homes. Eligible repairs include roof repair or replacement, ADA accessibility, heating and cooling replacement, lighting and electrical upgrades, and water heater replacement.
"These grants are more than just dollars - they build hope for future growth and prosperity,” Lieutenant Governor Beckwith said. “By helping Hoosiers make essential repairs to their homes, we are strengthening communities and ensuring families can build better lives right where they are."
