MASSENA – The village board will hold a public hearing prior to the start of their March meeting on applying for funding that residents can apply for to fix up their homes.
Deputy Mayor Matt Lebire said they’re seeking $400,000 from the Community Development Block Grant program, which can be doled out to 10 homes.
They must be “low- and moderate-income households in the village with owner-occupied rehabilitation.”
Village Administrator Monique Chatland said they typically help more than 10 homes, as some just need smaller fixes, like a new furnace.
“Why would anyone be against this? Are there any negatives?” Trustee Christine Winston asked.
