About this measure |
This measure provides updates on major milestones and anticipated next steps associated with the Cuyahoga County Housing Plan.
Updates are provided by the Cuyahoga County Department of Development on a quarterly basis.
Why is this important? |
The Cuyahoga County Housing Plan (Plan) was developed in partnership with countywide stakeholders. The Plan consists of six primary objectives that need to be addressed to improve local housing conditions and values:
- Access to Capital
- Tax Collection and Delinquency
- Housing Insecurity
- Special Populations
- Fair Housing
- Confidence in the Housing Market
How are we making an impact? | |
The Cuyahoga Housing Plan was enacted to further stabilize and strengthen home values, reduce housing insecurity, eliminate blight, incentivize renovation and construction of affordable housing, improve access to capital, and help residents maintain homes in good repair to avoid foreclosure.
To date, 132 homeowner repair loans have been issued to homeowners to make repairs, giving them access to capital for the repairs and increasing the property’s value. These loans comprise a total of over $504,000 to assist Cuyahoga County homeowners.
