DOWNLOAD THE H.I.R.P. APPLICATION
The Home Improvement Repair Program provides a reimbursement for costs associated with exterior repairs to owner-occupied dwellings. The program is made available through Community Development Block Grant funding from the US Department of Housing And Urban Development. The program provides additional funding to a homeowner with qualifying income to make necessary exterior repairs or improvements to their homes. Past experience has shown that the extra funding has been just enough to allow a repair or improvement project to become a reality. The program is a win-win for Springdale and the homeowner. Maintaining and improving your property not only increases your property values, it enhances the values of the entire community.
