Housing Rehabilitation Programs

How it works

The City of Aurora says income-qualified homeowners may be eligible for one or more housing rehabilitation programs funded through the city’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The purpose of the programs is to help homeowners make necessary health and safety repairs to their homes.

All programs are first-come, first-served until the funding is depleted.

What the money covers

The page does not provide a complete itemized list of eligible repairs on this page. It states that the rehabilitation programs are for necessary health and safety repairs.

Important limitation

Aurora says the Home Repair Loan Program, Minor Home Repair Program, and Essential Home Repair Program cannot assist with disaster relief efforts, including:

• Leaking roofs
• Structural flooding
• Standing water
• Replacement of broken or leaking windows
• Sewer line backups
• Basement repairs

The city directs residents to FEMA for disaster-relief assistance instead.

Timing and deadlines

The programs remain available until funding is depleted. No separate application deadline is listed on this page.
