The Department of Community Development was established by the Newaygo County Board of Commissioners in 1979.  The Department is responsible for planning and implementing housing programs to improve and preserve the County’s existing housing.  It is also our goal to provide a safer, healthier home environment for homeowners in Newaygo County.

The housing programs are funded through federal, state and local resources.  The Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) is the direct funding agency.

In June 2010, MSHDA awarded Newaygo County a CDBG allocation in the amount of $246,362 for the FY-2010 program, titled “Newaygo County Housing Rehabilitation Program”.  This current housing program has a term of 2 years, starting July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2012.

Program Description: 
Newaygo County will use grant/loan funds for Homeowner Rehabilitation and Emergency Repair.  The project will include administrative costs.  Newaygo County will rehabilitate 6-10 owner-occupied homes and assist approximately 20-25 families with emergency repair within the County of Newaygo.
