Details:
The purpose of the Senior Citizen Home Improvement Incentive (SCHII) grant program is to provide financial assistance to eligible senior home owner occupants with home repairs. These repairs are intended for making necessary improvements and to bring the home up to proper housing standards as defined by the current New York State and City of Jamestown Building Code.
Homeowners who currently receive, or would qualify for, the Enhanced Exemption or Check Program (own and live in their home AND your adjusted gross household income is less than or equal to $92,000) are eligible for a 90% rebate for up to $10,000 in documented repairs or improvements.
The City will work with the homeowner and contractor to pay the contractor directly after work has been completed on the project, with work subject to inspection. If a 10% match is required, the match can be used as a deposit for the contractor.
