Grant Information

One Stop for Growth - 

The One Stop framework is modeled around a Development Continuum that represents the life cycle of a major community development endeavor, from the initial community visioning to final construction. The Development Continuum shapes the Full Application and serves as a guide to help applicants understand where their project falls within the One Stop, both in terms of timing and readiness. The Development Continuum includes five distinct categories, broken into two broad groups:

Categories Related to Preparing for Growth

Grants to support activities and initial steps by community-based actors to attract and guide private investment in a community.

• Community Activation and Placemaking
• Planning & Zoning
• Site Preparation

Categories Related to Catalyzing Specific Projects

Grants to support implementation of construction activities to leverage private, commercial, industrial, residential investment projects, and other improvements that further the community vision.

• Buildings (vertical construction)
• Infrastructure (horizontal construction)
