- Redevelopment Grant Program:
- The Redevelopment Grant Program assists local communities with their redevelopment projects by filling the financial gap that often prevents recycling land for more productive uses. Redeveloping previously developed sites, where there are often dilapidated structures and inadequate adjacent infrastructure is more complex and costly compared to undeveloped parcels. The Redevelopment Grant Program strategically awards grants based on statewide, statutory criteria that make the program a useful financing tool for redevelopment projects. The program helps foster state/local collaboration that results in projects that achieve local revitalization goals and are consistent with state economic development strategies.
Funding Information
Approximately $2 million is available for distribution for the Redevelopment Grant.
Eligibility Criteria
Applications must be submitted by cities, counties, port authorities, housing and redevelopment authorities (HRAs) or economic development authorities (EDAs).
