Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting · 2026-04-20 · agenda_item

The City of Palatka Community Redevelopment Agency is planning a Building Improvement Grant Program to help property owners with exterior improvements in CRA Districts. This program aims to revitalize blighted residential and commercial properties. It offers cost-share funding, with 50% reimbursement for projects under $50,000 and a maximum reimbursement of $25,000 for projects $50,000 or more. Work must be completed within twelve months of the agreement date. This program is currently under review, representing an early opportunity for local businesses. The scope of work will involve exterior improvements such as site preparation, potentially new construction elements, painting, roofing, and landscaping, depending on individual property needs. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas like general contracting, painting, roofing, concrete, and landscaping could find opportunities by engaging early before specific project plans and permits are finalized.
