To apply for these CDBG-R funds, the Village is asked to submit a substantial amendment to their current program year Action Plan to the HUD field office by June 5, 2009. HUD has asked that we evaluate proposed projects for consistency with the goals of the Recovery Act and strongly urges grantees to use the CDBG-R funds for hard costs associated with infrastructure activities that provide basic services to residents or activities that promote energy efficiency and conservation through rehabilitation or retrofitting of existing buildings. Based on these guidelines, staff recommends that we use the CDBG-R funds for our Single Family Rehabilitation Program, to enable us to make the necessary repairs and improvements for an additional 3 - 4 qualified households. Because of the current economic situation, the Village has seen an increase in our Single Family Rehab (SFR) loan applications. Some of the applicants include: · Residents that have lost their job, and income source, but need to make necessary repairs to their homes. · Residents looking to decrease utility costs and make energy-saving improvements to their homes. · Elderly residents wanting to stay in their homes longer, but lacking the necessary funds to make repairs to their homes. The Single Family Rehabilitation Program provides 0% interest loans to qualified residents up to a maximum of $25,000 that requires no monthly payments, and is paid back upon the sale or change in title of their home. A long term benefit of this program is the ability for residents to stay in their homes longer and the stabilization of neighborhoods within the Village. An economic benefit of the additional funding are the jobs created for the construction workers awarded the work, along with the materials purchased locally for the rehabilitation work.
