Regional Infrastructure Fund Applicant Webinar August 18 from 1-2 p.m.
Following last week’s announcement that the Regional Infrastructure Fund (RIF) is open for applications, we have been working with Business Oregon to organize a webinar for potential applicants and other interested parties. This is a chance to learn more about the funding opportunity, eligibility criteria, requirements, timelines, and application tips. This session will help communities prepare strong applications and understand the steps involved.
This informational webinar is scheduled for Tuesday, August 18, from 1–2 p.m., register today!
As a reminder, the legislature allocated $10 million into the Regional Infrastructure Fund for grants to local governments and tribes with populations under 25,000. Funding may be used for infrastructure projects, including long-range planning, research and design. All projects must align with at least one of the Community and Economic Development Priorities adopted by the local Regional Solutions Advisory Committee.
The application period is open through September 16. More information can be found on the Regional Infrastructure Fund website, or you can reach out to your local Regional Solutions Coordinator.
Please continue to share the opportunity and encourage local governments and tribes to apply!
