Exciting Opportunity for Dallas Homeowners: Tap In Dallas Features Jasmine Bazley on HIPP Program!

This month, we were thrilled to have Jasmine Bazley, Area Redevelopment Manager for Housing and Community Development, join us on Tap In Dallas to discuss the Home Improvement and Preservation Program (HIPP). This program offers Dallas homeowners up to $24,000 for essential repairs like HVAC, electrical, roofing, and more.

*What is HIPP?*
HIPP helps Dallas residents keep their homes safe and livable by covering critical repairs. The program is open to all Dallas homeowners, with up to $24,000 available per home.

*Workshops and How to Apply*
The department has hosted 25 workshops to guide residents through the application process. “We’re going over the application, we’re going over the program. It’s all housing staff leading the meeting, so you have the people right in front of you who are working on the applications and reviewing the applications to answer questions,” Jasmine explained.

*"Applications open on August 19 and close on August 30 at 5 PM".* To apply, you’ll need your application, ID, Social Security card, and home deed. Homeowners must apply and live in the home.

Submit your application to* HIPP@Dallas.gov* or in person at Dallas City Hall. For questions, call 214-670-3644.

*Selection Process*
HIPP uses a lottery system for selection. If not selected, your application stays on file for future consideration if more funding becomes available.

Your Voice, Your City: Help Shape the Future of Dallas with the 2024 Bond Survey!

Dallas is a city on the move, and 2024 has already been a monumental year for progress and community empowerment. In May, the City of Dallas approved a historic $1.25 billion bond, a visionary investment in the future of our beloved city. This bond is set to transform our streets, storm drains, police facilities, recreation centers, and so much more, ensuring that Dallas remains a vibrant and thriving community for years to come.

But this bond isn’t just about bricks and mortar; it’s about *you*—the residents of Dallas who make our city what it is today. The decisions made this year will shape our neighborhoods, improve public safety, and enhance the quality of life for everyone. That’s why we need your feedback!

We want to know: *Do you feel that your voice was heard in the 2024 Bond process?* Your input is crucial in guiding how we prioritize and implement these projects. Whether you’re passionate about safer streets, better parks, or more robust public services, now is your chance to make sure your thoughts are counted.

Taking our survey is quick and easy, and it’s the best way to let us know how we did and how we can do better. Your feedback will directly influence the way we approach future projects and ensure that every Dallas resident feels included in our city’s growth and development.
