Planning staff reports $50,000 DLCD grant tied to Senate Bill 1537 for urban development
Summary
At the May 4 meeting staff said a $50,000 grant from the Department of Land Conservation and Development, tied to Senate Bill 1537, will support urban development of up to 50 acres and allow property owners to apply to join the program.
C.A. Fiorelli, a staff member, told the Monroe Planning Commission on May 4 that the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) has approved a $50,000 grant to support urban development under Senate Bill 1537.
Fiorelli said the grant can be used for development activities across up to 50 acres and that property owners will be able to apply to have their land included in the development program. He described the report as an informational update to the commission rather than a request for immediate action.
The announcement signals a new source of local funding staff said could be used to support planning and site-preparation activities. Fiorelli did not provide a schedule for application openings or a breakdown of eligible project types at the meeting.
Next steps: staff will provide further details to the commission when application guidance and timelines are available.
