Allen County Emergency Shelter Rehabilitation Grant Fund

How it works

Allen County created the Emergency Shelter Rehabilitation Grant Fund to receive and disburse money for emergency shelter rehabilitation. The fund is financed by Community Development Block Grant funds and is administered through the county’s Board of Commissioners.

What the money covers

The ordinance says the money is for “emergency shelter rehabilitation” and must be used only for grant program purposes. It does not list specific repair items, materials, or homeowner-facing project types.

Amounts and matching

The ordinance does not state a dollar cap, matching requirement, reimbursement method, or whether funds are paid directly to homeowners, contractors, or another entity.

How to apply

The ordinance does not provide an application process or eligibility details.

Timing and deadlines

The ordinance was approved on 2009-04-03. The code page still lists the fund as part of Allen County’s Title 12 financial code, but the ordinance text itself does not say whether the grant is currently accepting applications.
