Track B - FAST NY Pre-Development Grants Working capital grants of up to $500,000 per site will be awarded to fund the cost of necessary pre-development site planning and reviews for future shovel-ready sites. Grants will fund necessary costs to assist grantees in completing pre-development activities, such as those required for FAST NY Shovel-Ready Certification.
Track C - FAST NY Infrastructure Improvements Capital grants will be awarded to improve the shovel-readiness of existing, mature sites by funding infrastructure improvements such as water, sewer, transportation, electricity, gas and other capital-eligible site improvement costs. Competitive grant awards will be available to sites that have substantially met the requirements of FAST NY Shovel-Ready certification.
