Program details

How it works

The Emergency Repair Program is designed to address immediate threats to the health and safety of residents of single-family housing that resulted from a system failure. The city says the funding is provided in the form of a grant to the homeowner, and no liens or deed restrictions are placed on the property.

The program is meant to make immediate repairs to an essential system so the homeowner can continue to live in the home. The city notes that the program is not designed to address all housing code issues, but the funded repair will be performed in compliance with housing codes.
