The city of Livonia, through the federal Community Development Block Grant Program, has implemented a program designed to provide financial assistance to low and moderate income homeowners; to assist in bringing their place of residence up to code and correct items affecting the health and safety of the residents. Depending on the type of repair, loans can range from $1,500 to $15,000.
The Process
Anywhere from 3-5 licensed and insured Inspectors from the City of Livonia's Electrical, Plumbing and Heating Departments will be out to certify homes in need of these repairs. Once the walk through is completed and the home has been thoroughly inspected, the Community Development Staff and Housing Specialist will write a proposal, detailing the work to be done. The office of Community development will take the lowest responsible bid, sign a contract with the workers and the repairs will begin.
Types of Improvements
Examples of appropriate improvements:
• Install Grab Bars/Handrails
• Insulation installation
• Hot Water Tank replacement
