Housing Solutions seeking feedback

Housing Solutions for the Southwest plans to submit an application requesting Proposition 123 funding and/or other funding in an application to the state of Colorado, Department of Local Affairs. This application is for the Single Family Owner Occupied Housing Rehabilitation Program to serve residents in La Plata, Dolores, Montezuma, Archuleta and San Juan (Colorado) counties.

This program provides low-interest loans to homeowners who income qualify to repair health, safety and other maintenance items to homes. It would serve households that are at or below 100% area median income for the county in which they live, including residents who have low or moderate income.

Housing Solutions welcomes feedback about this matter. We encourage citizen input, especially by people who income qualify for the program. A copy of the application as submitted is available by contacting Housing Solutions.

The grant submission deadline is July 31.

Call Christina Cordalis, Rehab Program director at 259-1086, ext. 17, or email ccordalis@swhousingsolutions.com. Written comments may also be dropped off at the Housing Solutions office, 295 Girard St. Outside of office hours, comments can be left in the dropbox by the front door.
