Manchester Water Department (Town) is pleased to announce that financial assistance is available to qualified applicants through the Town’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program for water service line replacements. Single and multi-unit residential properties with water service line materials consisting of lead or galvanized materials may apply to have their water service lines replaced at no charge to the owner.
Assistance is available for a limited number of income-eligible residents on a first come first served basis who meet the grant criteria. Applications must be received no later than September 9, 2024, and construction must occur by October 1, 2024.
Residential buildings with seven or fewer dwelling units where at least 51% of the units are income-eligible (or 1 of 2 units in a 2-family) and for which rents cannot exceed the annually adjusted fair market levels established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The property owner must be current in mortgage payments (if applicable) and on all local taxes, fees and assessments including real estate, and water and sewer charges.
The Town reserves the right to deny assistance to any property whose owner has a record of tax or mortgage delinquency and cannot provide documentation of a loan modification agreement.
