RPCGB Receives Job Creation Funds

The State of Alabama Department of Finance announced in mid-November that economic development agencies across the state, including the RPCGB, will each receive a share of $12 million for job creation in their respective regions. The Alabama Revolving Loan Fund Authority met and issued bonds for the money that will be used to provide funds to twelve area agencies. The taxable bonds were sold by competitive bid to Protective Securities, a division of ProEquities, with a true interest cost of 5.416804%.

 

The twelve agencies that will be receiving funds from the $12 million bond issue include:

  • Northwest Alabama Council of Local Governments, Muscle Shoals 
  • West Alabama Regional Commission, Northport 
  • The Regional Planning Commission of Greater Birmingham, Birmingham
  • East Alabama Regional Planning and Development Commission, Anniston 
  • Central Alabama Regional Planning and Development Commission, Montgomery
