Code of Virginia - Title 15.2 Counties, Cities And Towns - Section 15.2-2417 Grants and loans

§ 15.2-2417. Grants and loans

Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, money in the Fund shall be used to make grants or loans to local governments to finance the assembling, planning, clearing, and remediation of sites for the purpose of promoting such sites to private developers for redevelopment.

No grant shall exceed $500,000. Each grant shall be conditioned upon a 100 percent match of funds by the local government. The Board shall develop guidelines for the administration of the grant program established by this chapter.

The Board shall determine the terms and conditions of any loan from the Fund; however, it is the intent of this chapter that the Board make long-term no-interest loans to localities to encourage utilization of any available funds. All loans from the Fund shall be evidenced by appropriate notes of the loan recipient payable to the Fund. The Director of the Department is authorized to require in connection with any loan from the Fund any documents, instruments, certificates, legal opinions or other information he deems necessary or convenient.
