get OHRP
grants
Morris and East Wawanosh
townships received the largest of
three grants under the Ontario
Home Renewal Program (OHRP)
announced last week by Jack
Riddell, M.P.P. for Huron and
Minister of Agriculture.
Morris and East Wawanosh will
each receive $40,000 grants under
the program. Ashfield township
will receive $15,000.
Administered by municipalities,
the program assists homeowners
in upgrading their homes, with the
emphasis on correcting faulty
structural and sanitary conditions,
as well as improving plumbing,
insulation, heating and electrical
systems.
Loans of up to $7,500 are made
available to eligible owner-occu
pants who wish to bring their
homes up to standard. A portion of
aloan may be forgiven, depending
on the recipient’s income. Interest
rates range from zero to ten
percent, again depending on in
come.
For applicants, the maximum
annual qualifying income, after
allowable deductions are made, is
$21,000.
OHRP benefits are available to
owner-occupants in all municipali
ties which have adopted minimum
housing standards by-laws or
resolutions establishing stan
dards, and have decided to take
part in the program. In communi
ties without municipal boundaries,
OHRP is administered by the
Ministry of Housing in conjunction
with the Ministry of Northern
Development.
More than 40,000 Ontario home
owners have benefited from OHRP
since the program was announced
in 1974.
OHRP is one of the Ministry of
Housing’s initiatives to help con
serve housing in Ontario.
