Brownfield Redevelopment Authority
Local Site Remediation Fund
In
September 2007, the NCBRA received a grant from the Fremont Area
Community Foundation to develop the County-Wide Brownfield Plan and
perform environmental site assessments. NCBRA expenses that are
reimbursed through tax increment financing are put in the local site
remediation fund to pay for future project expenses.
The
NCBRA has allocated funds from the local site remediation fund for
both developer driven projects and projects proposed by cities and
townships. In 2010, the fund was increased through the financial
support of the Newaygo County Board of Commissioners and the Fremont
Area Community Foundation.
To
apply for assessment funding for a developer-driven project, please
visit the links to the right to view the County-Wide Brownfield
Plan, the Application for Brownfield Incentives, and the NCBRAs Fee
Schedule.
To
request assessment funding, local governments need to submit the
Local Government Application for Brownfield Assessment Funding to
the NCBRA. The NCBRA Board will evaluate the project and determine
if funding will be awarded. Cities or Townships that receive funding
will sign an agreement with NCBRA and if a brownfield project is
ever adopted for the property, NCBRAs expenses may be reimbursed
through Brownfield TIF.
