CT Sandy Relief Program Update

Wilton's First Selectman, Bill Brennan, received the attached letter from the Connecticut Dept. of Housing Commissioner Evonne M. Klein listing "Owner Occupied Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Intake Centers."   

Dear Mayors and First Selectmen:

Today I am writing to you to update you on the Sandy Relief Program for the State of Connecticut. As you are aware our Owner Occupied Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Intake Centers are now open at the following locations:
• EAST HAVEN – 52 South End Road, Unit A
• FAIRFIELD – Fairfield Senior Center, 100 Mona Terrace
• MILFORD – Parsons Government Office, 70 West River Street
• NORWALK – Old Fire Department, 100 Fairfield Ave
• GROTON - Groton Senior Center, 102 Newton Road

All Intake Centers are open Mondays – Fridays 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Saturdays 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Homeowners are encouraged to call the toll-free hotline 1-866-272-1976 to schedule an appointment. We also have a mobile unit to assist elderly and disabled residents that cannot travel to one of the centers. 

Assistance ranging from $10,000 - $150,000 is available to rebuild, rehabilitate and mitigate homes to make them more resilient to future storm damage. 

I will be reaching out to all of you individually within the next few weeks to discuss ways we can increase the number of residents taking advantage of the resources available to them in the wake of Superstorm Sandy. I look forward to speaking with you.

Thank you,
Evonne M. Klein, Commissioner
