​(Webinar) Brownfields are abandoned, unused, or underused properties where redevelopment is hindered due to known or suspected contamination. Although brownfields are often considered problem properties, they can be redeveloped and turned into opportunities to clean up the environment, boost the local economy, and build a stronger community. ​​To help facilitate redevelopment of these properties, the state's Brownfield Program provides a full spectrum of resources and services to local officials, nonprofit groups, property owners, private developers, and other stakeholders. Join ECAP and Kentucky Brownfield Staff as they discuss what brownfields are and how the brownfield program can support your community’s redevelopment efforts!
