Dayton Area to Receive $29.3 Million for Neighborhoods
DAYTON RECEIVES SECOND LARGEST AWARD IN OHIO
Release Date: Thursday, January 14, 2010
Contact: Aaron Sorrell, Manager, Housing & Neighborhood Development, 333-4209
A regional consortium led by the City of Dayton will receive $29.3 million in federal Recovery Act funds to support neighborhood revitalization.
The Neighborhood Stabilization Program II funds will allow the area cities and organizations (Dayton, Montgomery County, Dayton Metropolitan Housing Authority, Kettering and Fairborn) to address approximately 1,200 vacant, abandoned or foreclosed structures.
The City of Dayton will use the award in the following ways: demolition and deconstruction; purchase and rehabilitation of foreclosed homes; and financing for rehabilitation of foreclosed properties. The City’s goals are to return properties to the housing market and stabilize/revitalize neighborhoods disproportionately affected by foreclosure and the economic recession.
Dayton neighborhoods most likely to be impacted by the grant funds include Santa Clara, the Greater Inner West area, Westwood, Twin Towers, Walnut Hills, Linden Heights and the Inner East area.
