The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has selected the City of Ocala to
receive a Brownfield Environmental Assessment grant in the amount of $500,000.

Ocala City Council members formally accepted the grant award during their
regular meeting that was held on Tuesday, October 18.

A total of 285 communities were selected for the grant nationwide, and Ocala is
one of 11 communities that were selected in the state of Florida.

The grant is intended to be used to conduct outreach, Phase I and Phase II
environmental assessments, and cleanup planning. According to the EPA, a
brownfield is a property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be
complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance,
pollutant, or contaminant.

Under a cooperative agreement, the City of Ocala and EPA will work together to
assess and plan, if needed, for the cleanup of underutilized properties while
protecting public health and the environment.

In a media release, the EPA stated the Brownfields Program targets communities
that are economically disadvantaged, and it provides funding and assistance to
transform blighted sites into assets that can generate jobs and spur economic
growth.

The EPA analyzed data near 48 brownfields and found an estimated $29 million to
$97 million in additional tax revenue for local governments in a single year
after cleanup, which is two to seven times more than the $12.4 million that EPA
contributed to the cleanup of those brownfield sites.

“Brownfields investments provide critical funding to empower communities to
address and reverse the effects of economic stress, particularly in areas that
have experienced disinvestment and decay,” said EPA Region 4 Administrator
Daniel Blackman.

Blackman added, “This funding will help communities in need transform
contaminated sites into community assets, create jobs, jump-start economic
development, and protect citizen’s health and the environment.”

According to the City of Ocala, public notices will be issued to announce
various actions concerning upcoming grant activities, and city staff will
conduct outreach efforts once a cooperative agreement is executed between the
EPA and the City of Ocala.
