(KMZA)--The city of Seneca has started a new program to assist property owners with the demolition of dilapidated structures.

The Seneca Cty Council approved the program last week, which will be available for use on residential and commercial structures within the city limits.

To be considered for funding, interested parties should file an application with the city before any demolition work is done.

According to a release from Seneca City Administrator Tammi Haverkamp, applicants may qualify for assistance with 50% of the cost of demolition to a maximum of $5000. The program is reimbursement-based, and funds are awarded on a first come, first served basis.

The release says the city has set aside $10,000 in budget funds for 2022 and an additional $10,000 for 2023.

Property owners interested in learning more about the program are encouraged to contact city hall. The city will begin accepting applications on November 1st.
