Online Q&A Yes Q&A Deadline 02/12/2025 4:00 PM (PST) In the early 1970's, the City of Huntington Beach received Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to create the City of Huntington Beach Housing Rehabilitation Loan Program (RLP), a program that assists very low and low-income households, with making needed repairs to their home. The prime objective of the RLP has always been the alleviation of sub-standard housing and the protection and improvement of the City's existing housing stock. Through the RLP, eligible homeowners are able to receive a low-interest loan or emergency grant to pay for repairs on their single-family home, mobile home, or condominium/townhome. The result is an overall benefit of maintained property values, continued pride of ownership and safe, decent housing. The RLP incorporates a process that educates and empowers homeowners; thus, they receive the tools necessary for planning and oversight of a major home repair project and learn how to work with a licensed construction consultant. The loan and construction related technical assistance provided by the City and its consultants to homeowners is crucial to the success of the RLP Program. Other Details 3.
