The Kentucky Brownfield Redevelopment Program would like to invite your community to an open house event that can assist you with your brownfield redevelopment projects. The department will host a Technical Assistance to Brownfields (TAB) Open House that will put your community in touch with organizations that can help provide brownfield training, funding identification, grant and technical assistance and project guidance. The New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), the Center for Creative Land Recycling (CCLR) and the Council of Development Finance Agencies (CDFA) will all be on hand to talk about aspects of your project. Whether just an idea or something that is already in process, these experts can provide guidance. TAB providers and CDFA receive grants from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to provide services such as:
- Developing and assisting with community involvement regarding site cleanups
- Guidance on remediation and redevelopment
- Explaining health impacts
- Explaining the science and technology of brownfield redevelopment at all stages
- Developing grant management techniques
- Brownfield grant review services
- Strategies for brownfield redevelopment
- Funding and resource identification
- Facilitating stakeholder participation
- Revolving Loan Fund assistance
- Reuse financing
- Tax credits and tax increment financing
Who should attend?
- Current brownfield grant recipients working through their projects
- Potential brownfield grant recipients who want to gain resources to better implement a brownfield grant
- Former recipients that are still working through projects
- Communities/Nonprofits that aren't involved in brownfields yet, but are considering it
- Any community or group currently working with the Kentucky Brownfield Redevelopment Program who is interested in learning more about programs and resources available to them.
