Lead Hazard Control Eligibility Requirements 
 

To be eligible for the program, the housing unit (house, apartment, etc.) must have been built before 1978. The household must also meet income eligibility guidelines (income limits are subject to change). In addition, at least one child age five or younger must live in or frequently visit the home (10 or more hours per week). 

Application Requirements 

A completed application must be submitted along with all required documentation, such as bank statements, tax returns, and other requested financial records. Applications that are missing required documents will not be considered, and the project will not move forward until all materials are received. Once a complete application is submitted, a member of our staff will contact you if additional information is needed. 

Rental Property Requirements 

For rental units, property owners must complete the owner section of the application and sign the required mortgage and promissory note documents. Property owners are also required to contribute 10% of the total project cost, which must be paid when contracts are signed and before construction begins. 

Program Waitlist 

There may be a waiting list for assistance through the Three Rivers Public Health Department Lead Capacity/Healthy Homes Program. All information submitted will remain confidential and will be maintained by the program. 

Priority on the waiting list may be given to households with children who have an Elevated Blood Lead Level (EBLL).
