Opportunity Zones
inSITE is an expert on the impact opportunity zones can have on community investment. From the creation of new zones to the promotion of those already available to businesses, inSITE helps you take advantage of development opportunities.
Energy Special Improvement Districts
Developing Energy Special Improvement Districts is essential for PACE financing (Property Assessed Clean Energy), as all eligible projects must be located in an ESID. inSITE’s expertise can help your community identify the right parcels to add to your ESID and guide you through the process.
Property Assessed Clean Energy
inSITE understands the advantages of this type of financing for your business owners and potential investors. Helping businesses take advantage of these government subsidies is a win-win for the environment, the community and the business owner.
New Community Authority
New Community Authorities are part of the toolbox of options for new development projects. inSITE Advisory Group can help your community understand the valuable impact of creating NCAs, as outlined in Chapter 349 of the Ohio Revised Code. Sometimes an NCA is the last piece needed to help get a development over the finish line.
Tax Increment Financing
Tax increment financing (TIF) is a tool that allows municipalities to promote economic development by earmarking property tax revenue from increases in assessed values within a designated TIF district. TIFs are implemented at the local level and may be created by a township, municipality or county. inSITE can help your community take advantage of this form of financing.
Government Advocacy
Sometimes local communities need to reach out to the state or federal government for assistance in project growth. Relaying to officials the importance of projects and advocating for our clients is an important aspect of what we can do for your community.
Think Tank Rapid Project Development
Utilizing a proprietary process designed by our affiliate, Welty Construction, inSITE coordinates key players to facilitate a project more quickly than the typical bureaucratic process allows. inSITE gets your project moving quickly so that you can reap the benefits in a more timely manner.
Featured Project: Collaboration is Key to inSITE & Conneaut Partnership
It’s difficult enough for municipal officials to manage everyday responsibilities such as roads, schools and public safety. Community development is important but often gets set aside in favor of other, more pressing tasks. When Conneaut’s leaders decided they needed help in identifying development opportunities, generating new investments and marketing their community, they chose inSITE Advisory Group to assist them.
