Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg announced NYC Build it Back, a new City program to assist homeowners, landlords and tenants in the five boroughs whose homes were impacted by Hurricane Sandy. As the City shifts its focus to long-term rebuilding, NYC Build it Back is designed to make the newly available Federal aid simple and understandable, and the program will provide assistance - including grants and loans - to New Yorkers still recovering from the storm.
New York City residents can begin registering for the program by calling 311 or visiting www.nyc.gov/builditback.
