Grant application for housing rehabilitation in Streator nearing, area residents encouraged to take survey


 
STREATOR – The application deadline for a grant that would rehab ten single-family homes in an area east of the Vermillion River in Streator is nearing, and the city is coming close to reaching its goal of submitting 30 surveys. Connie Buchanan, Housing Rehabilitation Grant Manager for North Central Illinois Council of Governments, says 30 surveys would gain the city points that would give them a better chance of being qualified for the Community Development Block Grant.

So far 23 surveys have been submitted and the application is due by August 3rd. Buchanan says the city will know by wintertime if they’re recipients, and then another wave of applications will go out to the area to prioritize which residents are the neediest for home improvements.
