STATEMENT

 

     This bill appropriates an additional $30 million from the General Fund to the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) for the Neighborhood Revitalization Tax Credit program.  The program provides grants to community nonprofit organizations that, under revitalization plans approved by the DCA, invest in local improvements to benefit low and moderate income neighborhoods.

     The regular program is funded by business entities that provide funding for qualified projects, and thereby earn tax credits.  This bill would provide $30,000,000 to support these neighborhood revitalization projects.
