Frequently Asked Questions about this report:

1. What does "funded" mean?
   Funded means that money has been set aside (committed) to specific individual rehabilitation/repair projects during the reporting period. These funds are not available to other individuals until the project has been completed and if there is an unspent balance remaining.
2. How can the amount spent exceed the amount funded for any particular location?
   Projects may have been funded in previous years, with money spent in the current year.
3. Where do the monies come from to finance these projects?
   Money can come from a variety of sources. Our office administers Community Development Block Grant Funds and HOME partnership funds for this program. Both of these come from the Federal Government. In addition we leverage other funds on occasion including State and Federal Weatherization, private homeowner funds and others. All of these sources are included in this report.
4. Why do some cities seem to get a lot of money while other seem to get little or none?
   There can several reasons for this. Some cities don't have a lot of income eligible households, some may have their own home repair programs, and in some instances we need to do a better job of making people aware of services.

Frequently Asked Questions about this report:

1. Why doesn't the number of approved, cancelled, pending and completed applications add up to the number of new applications?

   An application that has been approved, has been determined to be eligible for assistance, received competitive bids for eligible work, selected their contractor, signed loan documents (when a loan is involved) and funds have been earmarked for payment for that work.
4. What does "Cancelled Apps" mean?
   These are applications that have either been determined ineligible for assistance or cancelled by the applicant.
