Request for Proposal
Notice is hereby given that:
Randolph County Housing Authority (RCHA), located at 2280 Randolph Avenue, Elkins, WV 26241, will accept proposals for grant-funded Rental Housing Repairs from property owners. Proposals will be considered for awards from RCHA’s Housing Preservation Grant (HPG) program, utilizing funds granted by the USDA-Rural Development. Awards will be made on a competitive basis to fund repairs of rental housing occupied by low and very-low income tenants. Proposals will be ranked by evidence of match dollars up to 50% of the estimated cost of repairs; capacity of landlord to assist in documenting the incomes of tenants; the ability of the property to achieve State Historic Preservation Office approval; and the potential for the property to clear an environmental review. The intent of the HPG program is to improve rental housing stock by addressing urgent repair needs, such as those necessary to remove health hazards, improve HVAC systems, repair structural defects, and improve accessibility.
For more information, see HPG Statement of Activities at www.rchawv.org. Proposals for the HPG program must be received by email no later than October 19th. Proposals should include the following information: Address and description of property, including number of units and year it was built; number of units occupied by low or very-low households; list of repairs needed and estimated cost; amount of funds available for the project from the landlord; contact information for the landlord or management agent. Email proposals to [email protected].
