June 28th, 2021

For Immediate Release

The Economic Alliance Infrastructure Committee would like to announce that we will be accepting applications starting today June 28th, for the 2022 .09 Prioritization Process for Community and Economic Development/Public Infrastructure Projects within Okanogan County.   The Public Facilities Fund (.09 Sales and Use Tax rebate) is allocated for rural communities and eligible entities are limited to incorporated cities and tribes within Okanogan County.  At this time there is a moratorium on funding projects out of the .09 Public Facilities Fund, but the County Commissioners and the Economic Alliance still feel that there is value in moving forward with the prioritization process and ranking our community and economic development projects. 

The Economic Alliance coordinates the application and review process on an annual basis and provides the Okanogan County Commissioners with a single prioritized master list of economic and community development projects.  Applications will be available on the Economic Alliance Website at www.economic-alliance.com.  The deadline for applications will be 5pm, July 23rd, 2021.

If you have any questions, please contact me directly at 509-322-4634 or by email at rholderdiefenbach@economic-alliance.com 

Respectfully,

Roni Holder-Diefenbach

Executive Director
