Types of Assistance |
| |
 |
Seek
and Administer State and Federal Funds
|
|
| |
| |
Whenever practical, external funding assistance
is sought from state and/or federal sources and
administered by the agency to augment overall
project financing. Partner agencies have
included U.S. Dept. of Housing and Urban
Development, United States Department of
Agriculture, NYS Office for Small Cities, and
the NYS Office for Community Renewal. |
|
| |
|
|
Administer Revolving Loan Fund
|
|
| |
| |
Activities funded are subject to HUD regulations
and therefore must meet one of the following
objectives: benefit low to moderate income
persons, prevention or elimination of slums or
blight, or meet community development needs
having particular urgency (i.e. serious and
immediate threat to health or welfare).
The
Agency may authorize loans for facility
construction, acquisition, rehabilitation, or
improvement of industrial or manufacturing
facilities, research and development facilities,
or other eligible business facilities located
within the city.
In
addition, the agency may also finance a portion
of the cost of a firm’s machinery and equipment
to be used and located within the city. |
|
| |
|
|
Property Acquisition and Management
|
|
| |
| |
The
agency may also acquire and manage buildings
and/or property for lease to private enterprise
firms. Such real property is exempt from
property taxes, however the agency requires a
negotiated schedule of payment in lieu of taxes
(PILOT) arrangement. |
