Round XIII includes core capital grant and tax-credit funding combined with a wide range of programs from multiple state agencies. Entities seeking funding for projects that would advance the priorities of their REDC are encouraged to apply using the New York State Consolidated Funding Application (CFA), a single application for multiple sources of state funding.
While many of the targeted economic development programs may not apply to members, two Empire State Development (ESD) Capital Grant programs may offer an opportunity.
Examples of eligible costs include, but are not limited to: Acquisition of land, buildings, furniture, fixtures, machinery, and/or equipment; New construction, renovation, or leasehold improvements; Infrastructure improvements to the facility; Compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility requirements; or Other capital costs/expenditures deemed eligible by ESD.
The deadline to apply through the CFA for most of the programs, including the NFP Capital Grant Program, is 4 p. m. on Fri.
, July 28, 2023. Information on the main ESD Capital Grants program that will provide $150 million this round to a wider applicant pool than the NFP program and that accepts applications on an ongoing basis (i.e., is not subject to the July 28 th deadline) is available here .
It is designed for capital-based economic development projects intended to create or retain jobs; prevent, reduce, or eliminate unemployment and underemployment; and/or increase business or economic activity in a community or region.
