Do you know what brownfield redevelopment is and why it is so vital for cities?

The interactive discussion will include:

  • The basics of brownfield redevelopment and how it can aid in economic development within your community;
  • How to initiate, implement, and fund a brownfield project;
  • Help in understanding how to take advantage of extra funding available through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL); and
  • Information on how to overcome barriers associated with redeveloping abandoned or blighted properties.
