AT&T advised Alamance Co Communications the 911 system has been repaired and is working properly at this time
On Sunday, March 4, 2018, AT&T notified Alamance County Central Communications that there is a hardware problem, and 13,291 residents are unable to dial 9-1-1 from their land lines.
Residents may try calling 911 from cellular devices; however, as some systems are experiencing difficulties those needing emergency assistance should call (336) 570-6777 until further notice.
Applications are still available for Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans throughout the County. This program provides low interest or deferred loans to low-income homeowners who need home repairs. Low interest loan rates vary according to your ability to pay and household income, going no higher than 5%.
All clients must meet the HUD Income Limit of 80% and below the area median income, adjusted for household size. In addition, the client must own the home (no trailers unless the trailer is on a permanent foundation and the owner owns the land the trailer is on); not have any judgments or liens; and low debt-to-income ratio (other requirements are listed in the Rehab Loan brochure). The loans are for up to $30,000 depending upon the equity in the home.
If you are an interested homeowner, please visit www.burlingtonnc.gov or contact the City of Burlington at 336-222-5093 to have an application mailed.
