Clay County Home Repair Program (CDBG rehabilitation/home repair)

How it works

Clay County’s Annual Action Plan says the county will run a Home Repair program under its housing rehabilitation activities. The county states the work is aimed at homes of qualified applicants who have dwellings in need of repairs.

What the money covers

The plan says repairs may include:

• roofing
• electrical
• plumbing
• heating/air conditioning
• accessibility modifications
• health/sanitary problems, including minor septic system repair
• safety code violations
• lead paint remediation
• interior/exterior damage or deterioration to the structure, including flood damage
• termite treatment
• removal of trees

It also says the program may pay to replace failing septic systems and old wells by covering connection fees, abandoning private wells, closing septic tanks, and related plumbing costs.

Amounts and matching

The plan says awards are available up to $35,000.

How to apply

The annual action plan excerpt does not provide a step-by-step application process. It does say the county will implement CDBG-funded projects in-house.

Timing and deadlines

The project summary in the action plan lists a target date of 2025-09-30 and says the program is countywide in low- and moderate-income areas.
