Lenawee County is seeking proposals from Certified Grant Administrators for management and third-party administrative (TPA) services required for implementation of a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funded MI Neighborhood Grant through the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA).
Donor Name: Lenawee County
State: Michigan
County: Lenawee County (MI)
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 01/30/2026
Size of the Grant: More than $1 million
Grant Duration: Grant Duration Not Mentioned
Details:
Eligible households must be owner-occupied and at or below 80% of Area Median Income (AMI). Priority will be given to homes with urgent health and safety needs, including lack of heat, active leaks, structural deficiencies, and electrical or plumbing hazards, as well as to elderly homeowners, people with disabilities, veteran households, and households with children. Eligible rehabilitation activities may include roof and structural repairs, window and door replacement, siding and insulation, HVAC replacement, plumbing and electrical upgrades, lead hazard reduction (as required), and accessibility improvements.
The Lenawee County program will be implemented through an application-based process supported by public outreach via flyers, local nonprofit coordination, utility bill inserts, social media, the County website, newspaper notices, public meetings, and direct outreach to senior and disability service providers. Homeowner eligibility will be verified through income documentation, proof of ownership, insurance, and property tax status. Properties must be single-family, owner-occupied units within Lenawee County and meet environmental and feasibility standards. Lenawee County service area will exclude the service areas of other CDBG-participating entities within the county. Currently, that would be City of Morenci and Village of Clinton.
Lenawee County is seeking a qualified TPA to administer the MHIP Program in compliance with all MSHDA and HUD requirements. The TPA will manage outreach, application intake and eligibility verification, environmental review coordination, procurement assistance, financial management support, construction and labor compliance monitoring, reporting, and grant closeout. Lenawee County will retain ultimate responsibility for grant compliance while leveraging the TPA to ensure regulatory adherence and successful program execution.
