About Paint Lakewood
Please Note: The Paint Lakewood Program currently has a waitlist.
The Paint Lakewood Program offers a reimbursable grant, provided by the City of Lakewood, for up to $8,000 (for those who qualify) to City of Lakewood homeowners and residents to work with EPA certified, lead safe, and city-licensed paint contractors to complete exterior housing painting. The goal is to revitalize and improve Lakewood’s neighborhoods and reduce lead hazards by educating residents on lead safety issues.
If only the grant amount is used and no personal funds are spent, clients will be required to contribute 10% of the grant cost towards the project. If you have questions regarding this program, LakewoodAlive staff will provide additional details.
Qualified applicants must meet HUD-established income guidelines. Other restrictions apply. Thank you to the City of Lakewood for their partnership and funding of this program.
Please contact Ben Klein at (216) 521-0655 x8 or BKlein@LakewoodAlive.org for Paint Lakewood inquiries and questions.
