More than a Drop in the Bucket
Last year, 1,629 homes in Cleveland got a fresh new look thanks to Cleveland’s Paint Refund program.
Residents file an application with the Department of Community Development between May 1 and July 31, complete painting before October 31, and pass an inspection before receiving a refund of up to $400 for house paint. The program does not cover the cost of labor.
The program follows HUD’s guidelines for low-income households (less than $48,000 for a family of four). To find out about special discounts and neighborhood agencies offering paint vouchers, call 216-664-2045 or 216-664-4053.
