“The goal of the program is to help residents stay in their homes longer,” said Mayor Bob Kilger.

The Ontario Renovates program has two different components:

– An Urgent Home Repair component where eligible homeowners can receive a maximum forgivable loan of $16,000 which is earned over a 10-year period. Projects which may qualify under this component include upgrades to heating systems, foundations, roofs and electrical systems.

– An Accessibility Modification component where eligible homeowners can receive a maximum grant of $3,500. Projects which may qualify under this component include ramps and handrails. 

In order to be eligible, participating homeowners must have a gross household income of $40,000 or less and the house value must be below $160,000. In addition, the property must be owned and be the sole and principal residence of the applicant, and property taxes, home insurance and mortgage payments must all be up-to-date. The property must be located within the City of Cornwall or the United Counties of SDG. Funding is not available for work that is already started.

Application forms for the program will be accepted as of Monday, October 21, 2013, and completed applications must be received by 4:30 pm on Friday, November 15, 2013.

Application forms can be downloaded from the City website as of Monday, October 21st. Copies can also be obtained from the City of Cornwall Social Housing Division Office at 340 Pitt Street (3rd Floor) or by calling (613) 930-2787 ext. 2344. Eligible applications will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
