Licking County Housing Rehabilitation Program

How it works

Licking County Development staff administers a county-wide housing rehabilitation program using State of Ohio Community Housing Impact and Preservation (CHIP) and other funds. The page says the program is intended to help preserve existing housing stock that is considered affordable to low- and moderate-income persons.

What the money covers

The official page says the funds are available to eligible homeowners to help them make "needed repairs" to their homes. It does not provide a line-item list of covered improvements on the page reviewed.

Who it serves

The program is described as a county-wide housing rehabilitation program for low- and moderate-income homeowners.

How to apply

The page includes a "Seeking Contractors" link, but it does not describe the homeowner application process, required inspections, award process, or whether the assistance is structured as a grant, loan, or deferred loan.

Timing and deadlines

No opening date, closing date, or application deadline is stated on the page reviewed.

Additional county programs on the page

The same page also references the county’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program for housing, economic development, and infrastructure improvements, but it does not describe a homeowner hardening incentive program separate from housing rehabilitation.
