State Redevelopment Assistance Capitol Program Opens Application Period July 15

The PA Land Trust Association recently issued a reminder that groups can start applying for state Redevelopment Assistance Capitol Program grants on July 15 for 30 days, if those projects were first included in a line item Capitol Budget bill.

The Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program (RACP) is a Commonwealth grant program administered by the Office of the Budget for the acquisition and construction of regional economic, cultural, civic, recreational, and historical improvement projects. 

RACP projects are authorized in the Redevelopment Assistance section of a Capital Budget Itemization Act, have a regional or multi-jurisdictional impact, and generate substantial increases or maintain current levels of employment, tax revenues, or other measures of economic activity. 

RACP projects are state-funded projects that cannot obtain primary funding under other state programs.

Visit the Redevelopment Assistance Capitol Program webpage for more information.
