` f <br /> I. INTRODUCTION <br /> This manual is a guide for operating the housing rehabilitation related aspects of the Indian River <br /> County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. The responsibilities of Indian <br /> River County, the homeowner, construction contractor and the Housing Rehabilitation Specialist <br /> are specifically addressed in this manual. The major focus of this manual is on housing <br /> rehabilitation, demolition/clearance and replacement of dwellings. Relocation of households is <br /> also covered to a limited extent. The Anti-displacement policy should be consulted if <br /> displacement or permanent relocation becomes necessary. <br /> The goal for the CDBG program is to rehabilitate substandard units located in Indian River <br /> County and to bring them up to a minimum acceptable living standard. This standard is the <br /> HUD Section 8 Minimum Housing Quality Standard and the Florida Building Code. This goal <br /> will be achieved through the use of CDBG funds to contract for the required rehabilitation <br /> construction. The rehabilitation units to be assisted shall be owner-occupied. <br /> II. HOUSING REHABILITATION OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES <br /> A.

To use Community Development Block Grant rehabilitation grant funds as a <br /> catalyst to encourage residents of low-to-moderate income neighborhoods to <br /> improve their community. <br /> 4. To preserve existing housing stock. <br /> 5. To enable low-to-moderate income families to rehabilitate their homes by <br /> providing financial and technical assistance to those unable to obtain private <br /> financing. <br /> 6. To reduce utility costs and to improve the comfort of low-to-moderate income <br /> families through weatherization aspects of rehabilitation. <br /> 7. To improve the property tax base in low-to-moderate income neighborhoods. <br /> 8. To increase employment and training opportunities for local residents and <br /> minority persons through the provision of funds for the rehabilitation of homes. <br /> 9. To make homes accessible to elderly/handicapped occupants as may be required <br /> by code, accessibility requirements and as good judgement may dictate. <br /> 10.
