The Public Infrastructure Grant Program provides gap funding for local infrastructure projects that are part of a broader community development strategy aimed at stimulating future public and private investment. Eligible activities include construction, acquisition, reconstruction, installation, and relocation assistance related to public infrastructure, as well as planning activities essential for project development. The program also supports infrastructure improvements that enable the construction of fully-funded affordable housing for low- and moderate-income residents.
