Whole-Home Repair

Whole-Homes Repair Program in Erie County

 

ERIE, PA – Erie County Executive Brenton Davis has launched the COVID-19 ARPA Whole-Home Repairs Program in Erie County with grant funding from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development.

This program addresses housing habitability by providing grant funding to counties to support exterior home repairs for low to moderate income homeowners.

Homeowners in Erie County’s Boroughs and the City of Corry whose household income does not exceed 80% of the area median income are eligible to apply.

“The Whole-Home Repairs Program will deliver over $2.5 million into our county specifically targeted towards revitalizing our neighborhoods,” said County Executive Brenton Davis. “This program will help advance our rural revival initiative by targeting these funds into our rural townships and boroughs that haven’t seen this level of investment in decades,” Davis added.

Eligible applicants may seek funding to address exterior housing repair needs such as roofs, siding, porches, windows, foundations, and any needed ADA accessibility concerns. The Erie County Department of Planning and Community Development is administering the program. The City of Erie Redevelopment Authority and the Corry Redevelopment Authority are under contract to provide the home renovations and inspections.

Due to limitations on currently available funding applications are being accepted from a limited number of areas.
