Background:

Based on the program the individual(s) participated in, a mortgage was placed on the property.  The balance is due when the property is no longer owner-occupied, however individuals have the option to pay off the loan at any time.  There is also a forgiveness period that, if reached, forgives this balance.  Staff has determined that the forgiveness period has passed for the above loan(s) that has resulted in a zero balance due to the City.

 

Staff Recommendation:

The mortgage provisions have been satisfied and the mortgage(s) should be released.
