The city of Carrollton is in the process of applying for a grant that would allow it to buy out homes on Valley Circle that were badly damaged in the late September floods.
The city is currently writing a “substantially damaged properties” grant as authorized through federal mitigation funding made available once an area is deemed a national disaster area. If awarded, the grant would fund the city’s efforts to purchase properties from homeowners and would further pay for the cost of demolition of houses on the land. As part of the terms of the grant application, all lands purchased by the city with the grant money would need to be permanently cleared of all standing structures and allowed to return back to their natural state, effectively becoming permanent green space. In the future, the land could be converted into a park, though the grant mandates that no structures can be built on the property once it’s cleared.
