Tri-County staff help communities redevelop Brownfield properties such as vacant factories and former gas stations. Because Brownfield redevelopment can involve environmental, financial, legal, and property-related challenges, local governments often benefit from technical guidance and support. Tri-County staff meet with community leaders to:

• Explain available cleanup strategies, regulatory program requirements, and environmental liability considerations.
• Assist municipalities in obtaining public and private funding for brownfield assessment, cleanup, and redevelopment projects.
• Support prospective loan recipients throughout the brownfield cleanup and redevelopment process, from planning through project completion.
