Program details
How it works
The City of Kalamazoo is seeking one or more nonprofit housing organizations to manage a program that provides low-income owner-occupied households with critical home repairs funded by Community Development Block Grant dollars.
What the money covers
The city describes a critical homeowner repair program as one designed to address health and safety concerns of a single-family home so it remains secure and livable. The RFP says examples include:
- electrical work
- plumbing
- furnace repairs
- water heater repairs
- roofs
- accessibility modifications
The stated intent is to protect the household in the unit and prevent the property from deteriorating to a condition that may condemn the home.
Timing and structure
The document is a request for proposals for Program Year 2025, so the city was actively seeking a provider to administer the work. The source does not state a homeowner application deadline on the page itself.
Notes
The RFP is the official city document describing the repair activity, but it is written for prospective nonprofit administrators rather than homeowners.
