Franklin County is seeking 700
thousand dollars in federal funds to help rehabilitate low and
moderate income homes in the county.
The county has agreed to seek a federal
community development block grant to help rehabilitate homes in the
unincorporated areas of the county.
The commission recently completed a
similar project and was able to rehabilitate 5 mobile homes and
completely replace 5 others.
Commissioners said if the grant is
funded they will want the program to focus primarily on rehabbing
mobile homes and not replacing them so more people can be helped with
the limited funding.
The grant application is due in August
– commissioners will have to hold a second public hearing on the
issue before the application is submitted.
