An appointment was scheduled at 2:30pm on July 2, 2018 at the home owner house with the Kentucky State University Area Agent for Small Farmers Program to fill out a USDA rural housing application. The USDA rural housing application was scanned on July 3, 2018 to the Laurel County USDA Service Center to be processed. The USDA housing application was approved and closed on September 28, 2018 at the USDA Service Center in Laurel County, Kentucky. The USDA house repair application was approved as a grant in the amount of $5,999 dollars for a Heating and Air Unit and two doors for the home.
