The Accessibility Ramp Program offers funding for the installation of exterior wheelchair ramps in order to improve the accessibility of a home. Homes must be owner-occupied to qualify for the program. Manufactured homes are eligible for this program on a case-by-case basis. The program provides funding for the material and labor cost to install a ramp for homeowners throughout the Urban County jurisdictions. Household income must be at or below 80% of the area median income.
All accessibility projects shall include a property lien, which covers the cost of installation. The terms of the property lien shall be in the form of a deferred, zero percent interest loan that is forgiven at the rate of one-fifth per year for a five year period following project completion. After five years the lien is 100% forgiven.
Rental properties are not eligible for this Program.
Please contact us at 734-544-3008 if you have any questions about the Accessibility Ramp Program.
Accessibility ramp grants will be limited to a one-time assistance per dwelling during a five year period.
