For Immediate Release:
The City of Ottawa seeks input for the CDBG Housing Rehabilitation Grant application.
The City of Ottawa is calling on its residents to participate in a crucial survey that will pave the way for an application to the Community Development Block Grant Housing Rehabilitation Program. The initiative aims to improve housing conditions in low-to-moderate-income communities, offering eligible households a chance to receive grants for property improvements, rehabilitation, and retrofitting. These improvements could include electrical, plumbing, siding, windows, doors, gutters, roofing, HVAC, weatherization, and structural repairs.
To facilitate the application process, residents living in a single-family owner-occupied home within the boundaries on the map and meeting the income guidelines are urged to complete the survey.
Income Guidelines:
| Number in Household | Maximum Annual Income |
| 1 | $ 43,400 |
| 2 | $ 49,600 |
| 3 | $ 55,800 |
| 4 | $ 62,000 |
| 5 | $ 67,000 |
| 6 | $ 71,950 |
| 7 | $ 76,900 |
| 8 | $ 81,850 |
This survey is a critical step in the City of Ottawa’s grant application. Surveys may be picked up at Ottawa City Hall (301 West Madison St) or North Central North Central Illinois Council of Governments (613 West Marquette St).
