Types of Project Funding and Financing Services
Grants
Many grants are available annually and are the preferred choice of most of our clients. Most grant programs are highly competitive and require local matches.
Low-interest loans
Municipalities have several options when it comes to loans, including low-interest loans, some with principal forgiveness. In addition, there are many loans available for disadvantaged communities.
Bonds
It’s not always possible to finance a project solely through grant and loan programs. If you are wondering if it’s time to raise your utility rates, we can help you evaluate your projected fees and your systems’ operating needs to determine if additional user investment is necessary. In recent years, municipal bonds have reached historic levels and are a fiscally sound alternative to state and federal programs.
Industries
Who needs project funding and financing?
Funding can benefit most projects, if not all!
Municipalities have a yearly budget. Applying for grants and loans can make projects more feasible, and free up more money for other community projects.
Breckenridge Village Manager, Jeff Ostrander, confirms this. “Without the help of oF&V, we would not have gotten our USDA project funded or completed.”
FAQs
Community leaders wear many hats, but expertise in funding applications and processes is not usually one of them. At F&V, we know that each program has a process with different steps that must be taken in order to secure funding.
The applications can be inundating, but we are just a phone call away. Keep in mind that planning ahead is also important as some of these funding programs have application deadlines.
