January 15, 2010

The CCLRC and its consortium partners Cuyahoga County, the City of Cleveland and the Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority have been awarded $40.8 million in federal Neighborhood Stabilization Program funds by the Dept. of Housing and Urban Development. The funds will be used in 20 targeted Cuyahoga County neighborhoods to rehabilitate homes for resale to low- to middle-income families, to restore foreclosed and abandoned housing, to demolish structures that cannot feasibly be rehabilitated, and to expand the Re-Imagining Cleveland pilot program. Fifteen of the neighborhoods are in the City of Cleveland; others are in the communities of East Cleveland, Lakewood, Shaker Heights, University Heights and Garfield Heights.
