Residents in the City of Santa Clarita are being encouraged to improve their homes through the City’s Residential Rehabilitation Program and Property Rehabilitation Program.
The program assists qualified residents in keeping their homes up to the standards of their communities by providing grants for mobile homes, condominiums, or single family homes.
Over $50,000 in grants is still available to residents who own a home in Santa Clarita and use it as their primary residence. The annual household income must be at or below 80 percent of the median household income for Los Angeles County in order for the resident to apply for assistance.
Repairs include include interior and exterior painting, roof repairs or replacement, plumbing and electrical work, heating and air conditioning repair, flooring and window repairs as well as disabled access modifications.
City’s Housing Program Administrator Erin Moore-Lay says, “The City of Santa Clarita is very happy to have the funds to help more people this year. Being lower income does not mean a family has to live with faulty electrical systems, leaking pipes, a non-working furnace, or broken gates. These programs are here to improve the quality of life for our lower income residents and maintain the community standards throughout the City.”
Homeowners who wish to take advantage of the grants have until June 30, 2008 to apply.
The City can be reached at (661) 286-4156.
