WHAT IS WIND MITIGATION?
 

Shutters can be seen, so they are the first things most people think of when protecting their home against high winds. But shuttering windows is only one of the recommended activities. It’s what you can’t see that can make a big difference...

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has scheduled a bridge deck replacement project in
the City of Belle Glade. The bridge is located on SR 15/SR 80 over the Hillsboro Canal (Main St between
W Canal St N and W Ave A). The existing bridge deck will be replaced with an open steel grid decking.
FDOT expects to open construction bids in February 2013. Once a contractor is chosen a definite start
date will be established. Currently FDOT expects construction to begin in May and to be completed in
approximately 35 calendar days, weather permitting.
During construction the bridge must be closed to all vehicle and pedestrian traffic. The following detours
will be provided:
 Pedestrian and local/thru traffic (no trucks) will be detoured to W Ave A, NW 2nd St and W
Canal St.
 Truck traffic will be detoured to SR 717 and SR 715

City of Belle Glade Re-establishes Home Ownership Program

 

The City of Belle Glade has reorganized and renamed the City’s Housing Development Program and Policy for first time homebuyers.  Formerly known as the Community Revitalizing Initiative Program (CRIP) and Pocket of Poverty Housing Program (POP), the City’s housing program is now known as the “City of Belle Glade Revolving Loan Fund Program (RLF).”   Revising the program has afforded the City the opportunity to expand the program to include consideration of any eligible credit worthy first time home buyer applicant.  

 

Limited funds are available for construction or purchase of an existing home for eligible credit worthy area applicants.  As such, applicants are processed on a first come, first served basis of completed applications, along with the applicant’s ability to qualify.

 

Tired of renting and think you are ready for homeownership? Ask yourself -

?        Do I have a steady source of income (usually a job)?

?        Have I been employed on a regular basis for the last 2-3 years?

?        Is my current income reliable?

?        Do I have a good record of paying my bills?

?        Do I have few or no outstanding long-term debts, like car payments?

?        Do I have money saved up for a down payment?

?        Do I have the ability to pay a mortgage plus additional costs for maintenance and upkeep every month?

 

If you answered yes to all of the above, you need to know that the City of Belle Glade is accepting applications for the Revolving Loan Program at:
