FOR
OGDEN CITY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIVISION
I. Project Scope
The Ogden City Community Development Division operates housing and neighborhood improvement
programs. These initiatives are designed to revitalize neighborhoods in need, to encourage greater
owner-occupancy and private investment in those areas, and to provide housing opportunities for a
variety of household types and with varying incomes by improving existing and building new housing
stock. Ogden City uses a variety of funding sources, including federal grant funds which have special
income and project administration requirements.
Ogden City obtains homes in need of repair. Renovations bring the home up to Ogden’s building
codes, and add enhancements designed to prolong the life of the property and enhance its setting in the
neighborhood. Homes are sold to owner-occupant buyers whose income does not exceed 80% of the
area median. Ogden City may also acquire vacant land suitable for housing development. Down
payment and closing cost assistance is available through HUD and Ogden City. The program has been
in place since the Spring of 2005.

work on the projects described above from contractors in the pool. At its discretion, Ogden City may
also request competitive bids from other qualified contractors not in the contractor pool. The work will
involve renovation of residential properties owned by, or under the direction of, Ogden City
Community Development Division.
