Allegheny County Economic Development (ACED) has announced the timeline for 2024 Act 152 Program applications. Applications will be accepted from August 12th through September 13th. The Act 152 Allegheny County Blight Removal Program provides funding for demolition and blight remediation planning. The Program uses established blight conditions focusing on demolishing hazardous structures, site preparation for development projects, and multi-phase planning efforts. Councils of Governments are authorized applications through the Program and may apply on behalf of their members. Applications are evaluated on several criteria including inclusion on existing demolition lists, community impact, and potential re-use of the property. Any member community interested in utilizing the QVCOG to submit an application must provide the required information by the end of business on September 6th. Per ACED, the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program will no longer fund demolition projects, rather all demolition related applications will be processed through the Act 152 Program. Below you will find the most up-to-date application guidelines and materials. If you have any questions regarding the program, or would like to discuss how the QVCOG can assist, please contact Executive Director Conners via email ([email protected]) or by phone (412-766-7458) at your earliest convenience.
