Staff from the state Department of Community Affairs will hold a Housing Assistance Seminar Oct. 8 in Toms River in order to assist local residents with questions about the RREM (Reconstruction, Rehabilitation, Elevation, and Mitigation) grant program, under which primary residents whose houses were damaged by the storm can receive up to $150,000.<\/p>\n

Representatives from the DCA\u2019s Sandy Recovery Division, Housing Recovery Centers, and RREM Program Managers, will be present to answer specific questions about the New Jersey RREM Program.<\/p>\n

\u201cRREM applicants recently approved for funding who are unsure of the implications of their newly funded status will be able to receive answers for their general questions,\u201d a statement on the program said. \u201cThe goal is to assist homeowners through the grant process and understand the role of the RREM Project Manager, who will work with the homeowner to provide details and offer technical assistance for the completion of the homeowner\u2019s scope of work to ensure it complies with RREM construction standards.\u201d<\/p>\n

DCA representatives will sit down with residents, one-on-one, to focus on specific questions. They will help identify homeowners\u2019 needs, such as building and zoning questions or a historic preservation concern and a DCA staff member will go over homeowners\u2019 files to provide more focused, personal help.<\/p>\n

The seminar will be held Wednesday, Oct. 8, from 4-7 pm in the Toms River Council Meeting Room, 33 Washington Street, Toms River.<\/p>\n
