Wellington: Community Development Block Grant for housing rehabilitation

The City of Wellington, in partnership with Sumner County Economic Development Commission, is applying for a Community Development Block Grant for housing rehabilitation. In January of 2017 the State of Kansas will be awarding Community Development Block Grants to cities in Kansas that need housing rehabilitation. These federal funds are taxpayer’s monies being returned to communities. The City of Wellington is applying for $300,000 to be used on the rehabilitation of homes. If awarded a Community Development Block Grant, the City of Wellington will offer housing rehabilitation assistance to qualifying low-to- moderate income households in a selected target area. For more information please contact the Sumner County Economic Development Commission at (620) 326-8779 or stop by the SCEDC office at 123 N. Jefferson in Wellington to pick up a pre-application.
