CCIDA Announces Acceptance of Grant Applications

CLEARFIELD – The Clearfield County Industrial Development Authority (CCIDA) would like to announce the sixth round of competitive grant solicitation to assist with industrial and economic development projects in Clearfield County. 

For the sixth consecutive year, the Infrastructure Grant and Zero-Interest Loan Fund (IGLF) Program has been made possible as a result of the CCIDA’s success in growing and turning over loan funds that have assisted dozens of companies over the years with local business expansion projects. For several years the loan funds have been utilized for industrial expansion projects relating to machinery and equipment purchases, facility expansions and technology-based upgrades for businesses throughout Clearfield County. 

The IGLF has been created to proactively respond to the community’s need for supplemental sources of financing to support municipalities, units of local governments, non-profit corporations, hospitals and public agencies within the County of Clearfield to spearhead and further leverage economic development projects with other traditional sources of public and private financing. 

The Deadline for applications for the 2011 grant and zero-interest loan pool is Nov. 14 by 3:00 p.m.  Complete IGLF guidelines and application may be acquired by contacting the CCIDA office at 814-768-7838.  Applications and guidelines can be emailed, faxed or mailed to interested parties.
