This program provides full housing rehabilitation for low to moderate income residents of Cabarrus County. Cabarrus County focuses on elderly and disabled persons and households for this service. Every three years, all of the consortium members must choose to commit to program participation for the next term in order for the consortium to continue. Some members actively participate while others only agree to be members of the consortium. Cabarrus County is required to notify the City of Concord by February 3, 2014 of our intent to remain in the consortium. The benefit to Cabarrus County has been non - competitive funding for housing.
