On March 8, 2012, the County of Halifax was awarded a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) from the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development (VDHCD) for the Pine Height Tr. Housing Rehabilitation Project. The purpose of the CDBG is to improve housing conditions for homes occupied by low and moderate-income (LMI) persons.
Project activities will include housing rehabilitation to 14 LMI units, of which 11 are owner-occupied units and three (3) are investor-owned units. In addition, four (4) owner-occupied units will be substantially reconstructed and debris, trash, inoperable vehicles and dilapidated structures will be removed throughout the neighborhood. The project area includes 33 homes located on Pine Height Trail and one unit on the corner of Mountain Road and Pine Height Trail. The County executed a contract with the Department of Housing and Community Development in July 2012 in the amount of $840,169. All project activities must be completed by July 2014.
