Flint has one of the highest concentrations of brownfield-eligible parcels in Michigan and one of the largest NMTC-eligible census tract footprints in the state — creating a high-incentive environment for developers committed to its revitalization.
Flint's legacy as an automotive manufacturing center left significant brownfield inventory, most qualifying for Michigan Brownfield TIF and EPA Brownfields grants. The city's income levels place virtually all census tracts within NMTC eligibility. The Michigan Community Revitalization Program has prioritized Flint as a target community, and the Michigan Strategic Fund has provided direct support to anchor projects. HUD Lead Hazard Control grants apply to Flint's older residential stock. Developers benefit from streamlined brownfield plan approvals through the Genesee County Brownfield Redevelopment Authority.
Flint brownfield projects access EPA Brownfields grants (up to $500K cleanup) + Michigan Brownfield TIF + NMTC (39%) + MSHDA LIHTC — one of the deepest incentive stacks in Michigan for distressed-site development.
