Home Repair Grant Program

How the Program Works
  • Complete and return a pre-application.
  • If you meet the income guidelines and property guidelines below, you will be added to the waiting list.
  • When you’re near the top of the waiting list, you will be notified by mail to schedule a meeting to verify your eligibility and discuss how the program works.
  • If you still qualify for the program, we will inspect your home to determine if the cost of repairs is within the funding limitation of available grants.
  • If your property qualifies, your application will be processed to receive repair grant assistance.

You may qualify if your total household income is below the following limits:

Your property may qualify if you have the following:
* Deed  * County, Village and School Taxes current * Homeowner’s Insurance current 
* Flood Insurance current (if located in flood plain) * Mortgage current

Completing the pre-application does not obligate you in anyway.  Applications will be taken on a first-come, first-serve basis and income target. If your pre-application is accepted, your name must go on a waiting list. Unfortunately, the need for home repair assistance often surpasses the amount of funding that is available to distribute.  Please complete the entire pre-application and return it as soon as possible. 

Please bring, mail, or email the pre-application to:
