Program Description

Program Description. Through the Mississippi Site Development Grant Select Sites Program, matching grants are made available to assist Local Partners in developing highly competitive greenfield sites that are ready for industrial development. MDA will evaluate prospective and pre-existing publicly owned properties available for industrial development in the state, as well as optioned properties available for industrial development, and will invite Site Development Grant Select Sites applications for site development projects at these most competitive sites in the state. Because the intent of the Select Sites program is to fund site development projects that yield highly competitive sites, MDA may invest more in these sites. As a result, the agency will conduct a more thorough evaluation of each application to ensure a higher likelihood of a return on investment when making funding decisions.
