The program involves <br /> property owners applying to Housing and Community <br /> Development for federal funds to assist in rental <br /> property repairs. Rental property owners must match the <br /> federal dollars received on a one for one basis. Upon <br /> verification of eligibility, Housing and Community <br /> Development secures the services of a qualified <br /> contractor, passes through payment for the <br /> rental property owner's share of the repair cost, and <br /> monitors work in progress. Federal funds are received by <br /> the County on a reimbursement basis after project <br /> completion. This action will establish a project <br /> ordinance through which the Rental Rehab II program will <br /> be administered. <br /> RECOMMENDATION(S) : Approve the proposed grant project ordinance for <br /> the Rental Rehab II program. <br />
