Owner Occupied Rehab Funding Needs: We Want to Hear from You

The City of Mar­i­on is seek­ing input from local home­own­ers about home repair needs through­out Mar­i­on neigh­bor­hoods. If you or some­one you know owns a home in Mar­i­on that needs home repairs — roof, HVAC, acces­si­bil­i­ty updates, or elec­tri­cal work — we want to hear from you. Take just five min­utes to fill out the Grant Coun­ty Crit­i­cal Repair Sur­vey: www​.ahc​grant​coun​ty​.com/​o​w​n​e​r​-​o​c​c​u​p​i​e​d​-​rehab

This sur­vey is part of the City of Marion’s effort to secure $350,000 in state fund­ing for home repairs through the Indi­ana Office of Com­mu­ni­ty and Rur­al Affairs (OCRA)’s Own­er-Occu­pied Reha­bil­i­ta­tion (OOR) pro­gram. The appli­ca­tion will be sub­mit­ted as part of Cycle 3, ahead of the Novem­ber 1, 2026 dead­line. If award­ed, the funds will sup­port crit­i­cal home repairs of up to $25,000 per house­hold for low- and mod­er­ate-income home­own­ers in Marion.

​“Every response helps us make the case that Mar­i­on home­own­ers need this invest­ment,” says AHC Exec­u­tive Direc­tor Lor­ri Cox, ​“help us by tak­ing five min­utes to fill out the survey.”
