FREE FUNDING FOR COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT — LEARN HOW

Communities across the country leave federal dollars on the table each year by failing to leverage funding resources for redevelopment. Don’t let your community make the same mistake!
The fourth annual Northwest Florida Brownfield Redevelopment Forum will be held on June 16, 2016 at the Santa Rosa County Auditorium. Here, you’ll learn about the federal programs in place to help your community transform blight into beautiful assets that can increase tax revenue and stimulate local economy.
PPM Project Manager Ben Clabaugh will participate as a panel speaker for the forum, covering brownfields contamination resolution. Clabaugh emphasized, “This conference is a solid introduction to the program that can get funds for redevelopment in any community.”
“For example,” Clabaugh referenced, “in 2013 the City of Pensacola was awarded a $400,000 community-wide grant from the EPA for the redevelopment of brownfields.
