Goal 2: Aggressively market available housing rehabilitation grants, loans, and related programs within the neighborhoods.	1. Work with City and State housing agencies to ensure housing rehabilitationprograms meet the needs of neighborhood residents and property owners.	TLOMP Neighborhood Associations
	2. Investigate development of a housing rehabilitation program that wouldhelp property owners in maintaining and upgrading their properties, whilespreading increased property tax payments over a span of several years. The reinvestment in rental and owner occupied property is a positive strategyto improve the older housing stock of the neighborhood. However, the initialoutlay of capital to upgrade the property is directly followed by an increasein property taxes for improvements. Developing a program that would spreadproperty tax increases (due to the improvement) over several years wouldhelp relieve the financial burden of property owners reinvesting in olderhousing stock.
