Description
The Development Infrastructure Grant Program (DIP), administered by the Mississippi Development Authority (MDA), provides grants to Mississippi municipalities and counties for public infrastructure projects tied to industrial development. Funding addresses the public infrastructure needs of a new or expanded industry, connecting local infrastructure investment with economic growth in the state.
The program funds publicly owned infrastructure directly related to the construction, renovation, or expansion of industry. Job creation is its goal. Its focus is therefore on infrastructure serving an identified industrial need, rather than general infrastructure improvements unrelated to a new or expanding industry.
