The Lancaster Communi-
ty Action Program and the
Lancaster Housing Devel-
opment Corporation will
again offer the Winteriza-
tion Program.
This program will enable
low and moderate income
county residents to ‘‘Win-
terize’’ this Fall and hope-
fully help detray the cost of
heating as the cold weather
approaches.
The main goal for the
program is energy conser-
vation—making improve-
ments to seal off a house
from unnecessary heat loss.
For eligible people, free
materials are being provid-

visit a home and make an
estimate of the kind of
improvements most needed,
the process and the length
of time needed. Winteriza-
tion crews are then schedul-
ed to do anything necessary
to seal off a house;
insulation, installing storm
windows, caulking, reglaz-
ing windows, banking and
sealing foundations, patch-
ing a roof, or repairing a
chimney.
Materials and labor will
be provided. In special
instances, repair work will
not be completed without
the financial support of the
owner.
For some homes, winteri-
zation is impossible without
larger repair projects such
as new roof or repairing a
hole in a foundation. The.
Farmer’s Home Adminis-
tration is cooperating with
the winterization program
by making low-interest
home improvement loans
available to eligible families
in rural areas (which in-
cludes all of Lancaster
County except Lancaster
City, its suburbs and Co-
lumbia). These loans can go
farther because they will
only be used to cover the
cost of materials. Labor will
be provided by the winteri-
zation crews.
The loan will have to be
repaid at low interest over a
length of time but the
improvements are expected
to reduce heating costs
equal to the monthly pay-
ment required by Farmer's
