To be eligible, applicants must be the owner and occupant of the house, meet income requirements, and submit an application available on the county’s website.
Income eligibility ranges from $57,900 for a one-person household to $109,100 for an eight-person household. Applications will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis until all available funds are allocated. Assistance with the application process is available, and more information can be found on the county’s website or by emailing [email protected]
