Does your community have a brownfield site that needs assistance? Present your brownfield redevelopment plans to experts at our online and In-person marketplaces that can help communities identify potential resources for their project. Open to all communities. CDFA will conduct two in-person and two online marketplaces each year.

Response
Teams
A limited number of communities will receive on-site technical assistance from a team of finance and technical experts and CDFA staff. These visits will offer specific, actionable advice that can transform brownfields into economic assets. Communities must participate in a project marketplace to be eligible, and will be selected through an application submission process.
