Ottawa launches Brownfield Incentive Program in Ottawa County
Ottawa County Commissioners unveil the Brownfield Incentive Program to spur redevelopment of contaminated or blighted sites. The program funds come from the Ottawa County Brownfield Redevelopment Authority via tax increment financing, with cooperation from the Land Bank Authority. Developers may pursue grants and loans through state and federal agencies, though funds are hard to obtain. Becky Huttenga notes contaminant testing can be costly, as surveyors assess site contamination.
