Summary
The city announced Saving Our Homes, an ARPA‑funded program administered with TEDC, offering up to $4,000 per household to help eligible low‑income property owners clear title or repay property tax debt; eligibility criteria and an August 31 application deadline were given.
The Saving Our Homes initiative aims to help long‑time Tulsans at risk of losing homes because of tax debt by offering assistance for title clearing or tax repayment.
