The types of emergency repairs to be handled by the Program will be defined as emergency repairs to address conditions that pose a threat to the life, health, and safety of the very-low income elderly homeowner. Typical repairs under this category may consist of but not limited to repair/replacement of heating systems, roofing systems, electrical systems, water systems (interior plumbing and wells), sewer systems (interior plumbing and septic), and unsafe access or egress. Additional funding will be provided by NYS Affordable Housing Corporation, NYS Access to Home, NYS HOME Program, and Oswego County Office for the Aging.
