What is the Local 重建 Program?
Designed to support small business real property investments and expand real estate tax receipts for the city, the Local 重建 Program has been effective in incentivizing public-private partnerships and private investments. By assisting property owners and/or business owners with real property and capital investment projects, we are able to help decrease vacancy rates, revitalize areas and increase the City’s tax base. 今年, $150,000 was awarded to support 18 local businesses through the Local 重建 Program, creating and retaining almost 200 jobs and leveraging $13.7 million in capital investments across the City.

弗吉尼亚中部的免费诊所
A staple in Downtown LYH for many years, the mission of the Free Clinic is to ensure high-quality, 富有同情心的, and comprehensive healthcare for every member of the community. They fulfill this mission by providing high-quality medical, 牙科, 药店, 行为健康, and health education services to those in Central Virginia who do not have the resources to obtain these essential healthcare services.
Comprised of a staff of less than 20, the Free Clinic relies on the contributions of community partners and thousands of volunteer hours. Many local healthcare providers volunteer their free time to serve patients at the Free Clinic.
去年, the clinic underwent a much-needed upgrade, not only to the façade outside but to the patient care rooms and main waiting area. 这个改造提供了一个安全, welcoming environment in which their patients can receive the highest quality care while ensuring privacy and respect. A significant portion of their patients come for 牙科 care, 随着新的升级, they are able to provide critical 牙科 services in a bright, 现代欢快的空间.

如何申请
Applying for the Local 重建 Program couldn’t be easier! If a property or business owner pulls a building permit of $25,000或更多, they are automatically included in our list of potential applicants. We review each property in advance to ensure that it meets all qualifications, then send the application to you directly. The program runs from March 1st – February 28th each year, with applications being due by May 1st for work done in that time period. Applications are reviewed and scored, and awards are distributed in the month of June each year.
