The City of Bluffton is holding a public meeting on January 15 at 6 pm at the Wells County Dream Center regarding the potential Owner Occupied Repair Program. If you or someone you know in Bluffton lives in their own home and could use some repairs (plumbing, HVAC/Heating, roofing, or accessibility) they should attend this meeting to learn more. The more participation the better chance this grant could be a reality.
