COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – A Coalition comprised of the Cities of Colorado Springs and Fountain, Colorado Springs Utilities, and School District 11 is seeking nominations of brownfields for free revitalization assistance. Brownfields are properties that are underused or vacant due to real or perceived environmental issues. The Coalition has received a $600,000 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency grant to help bring these properties back into productive use.
The grant allows the Coalition to assist property owners, potential purchasers, and developers with environmental testing and planning for cleanup and reuse with the goal of turning brownfields from liabilities into assets. The Coalition will focus on properties throughout the areas of Shooks Run and Fountain Creek.
