After conceiving of an idea, the next hurdle can be finding adequate financing to turn your community’s idea into an economic development reality. At M&L we work with clients who can benefit from tools such as tax increment financing, Section 108 loan guarantees and competitive state and federal grant programs to finance new infrastructure, facilitate new private investment, re-invest in older neighborhoods,  attract new employment opportunities–all for the purpose of creating more vibrant and economically sustainable communities.
