City Of Lake Wales issued the following announcement on Jan. 15.
Seniors 60 and older living in the Northwest Neighborhood are encouraged to apply for complimentary home repairs. You may be eligible for free repairs, such as roof repairs, exterior painting, light construction and lawn cleanup.
The Legacy Housing program is facilitated by the City’s Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA,) and it’s supported by area partners, including: Keystone Challenge Fund and Roosevelt Academy.
