GBIC representatives said the regional project prioritization list is being updated and that the commission has agreed to award extra points to projects that use the Community and Housing Infrastructure Program (CHIP) to support housing development.
Representatives from GBIC updated the commission on the Regional Project Prioritization (RPP) list and a change to the scoring rubric to award extra points to projects that use the Community and Housing Infrastructure Program (CHIP).
Alex (speaker 8) said the RPP revision will accept applications through the end of the month and encouraged nonprofits and municipalities to apply.
