Gadsden County CDBG Housing Rehabilitation / Demo-Replacement Program

How it works

Gadsden County’s Community Development Division says it maintains safe, sanitary, and affordable homes in the county. County news says the county completed its final housing rehabilitation project funded through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program and that the county was awarded $750,000 to support demolition/replacement and major housing rehabilitation projects throughout the unincorporated areas of the county.

What the money covers

The official county materials identify:

• Major housing rehabilitation projects
• Demolition/replacement of homes

The county’s bid materials for the housing rehab grant also show the county procured lead-based paint and asbestos inspection services for approximately five residential properties so that they could be rehabilitated with CDBG funds. That indicates environmental testing may be part of the project process.

Amounts and matching

The county news release states a total award of $750,000 for the project. The sources reviewed do not break that total into per-home award amounts, matching requirements, reimbursement rules, or homeowner cost share.

How to apply

The public materials reviewed do not include a homeowner application page for this specific housing rehab round. The county appears to have run project-specific procurement and implementation rather than a standing open enrollment page.

Timing and deadlines

County news says the fifth and final project was completed in 2026. The current public pages do not show an open homeowner application window for a new housing rehab round.

What a homeowner should know

This is the county’s most concrete home-improvement funding stream tied to disaster resilience and habitability, but the official pages reviewed do not publish a live homeowner intake form or current round details.
