Infrastructure State Revolving Fund (ISRF) Program - California Grants Portal IBank's ISRF Loan Fund program provides low-cost, direct loans to local governments and nonprofits sponsored by public agencies for a wide variety of public infrastructure and economic expansion projects (excluding housing) that improve and sustain communities, helping individuals and families thrive.

We focus on small and mid-/moderate-sized local governments and special districts — including those in underserved regions and communities. ISRF loans can fund a wide variety of projects – including water and wastewater treatment plant upgrades or construction, venue or airport construction, or street repair and upgrades.

ISRF financing is available in amounts ranging from $1 million to $65 million with loan terms for the useful life of the project up to 30 years . • Save time — We conduct a preliminary review process and provide feedback before inviting you to apply. • Can submit applications any time of the year.

We accept applications continuously, and because we issue our own bonds to generate funds, we do not run out of funding. • If approved, can receive funds within 45 to 90 days of IBank board approval. • Receive low, competitive, fixed-interest rates up to 30 years.

We are AAA rated, and we pass our low borrowing costs (through bonds) to you. • Don’t have to compete against others — No scoring mechanisms, we operate on a first-come, first-served basis.

• Get transparency every step of the way — No surprises We are experts in municipal lending and our loan team values access to opportunity, diversity, and inclusion and truly cares about connecting city and other local governments to the low-cost financing they need to make their important public infrastructure and economic expansion projects a reality.
