Amity City Council Special Meeting
The council held a special session to discuss the potential pursuit of a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) for housing rehabilitation within the city. A representative from the Housing Authority of Yamhill County presented on how these funds could assist low-income homeowners with critical home improvements such as roof replacements, accessibility modifications like ramps and walk-in showers, plumbing repairs, and HVAC system upgrades. The discussion covered the application and waitlist processes, income and asset eligibility requirements, and specific program constraints, including exclusions for manufactured homes built prior to 1978.
