Neighborhood Conservation Services
The Neighborhood Conservation Services Division will actively provide housing opportunities for primarily low and moderate-income families and individuals to maintain and expand the housing stock and encourage neighborhood revitalization. These housing opportunities will include the implementation of programs for technical assistance, construction management, home owner housing rehabilitation, (including emergency situations that affect the safety of the occupants), rental housing rehabilitation, and new home buyer construction. The division strives to implement these programs using a friendly, service oriented delivery system that maintains human dignity for low-income families and individuals.
The following pages summarize the various programs and provide key staff contacts for the corresponding programs.
