body
DESCRIPTION
Case #RC23-SHIP-014 was approved for rehabilitation on March 18, 2025, with a mortgage of $172,000.00 and a grant agreement of $11,525.00, for a total project cost of $183,525.00. Due to the homeowner’s inability to remove debris from the house before demolition, and the presence of a hornet’s nest hindering its removal, the contractor will be clearing both the debris and the nest. The cost of the removal of debris will be $3,000.00 and the additional recording costs will be $30.00. This increases the mortgage to $175,000.00 and the grant agreement to $11,555.00, for a total project cost of $186,555.00.
RECOMMENDATION
Request approval of this SHIP modification rehabilitation program agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are available in the Affordable Housing Trust Fund.
