Cascade County, Montana approves financing program for energy related projects – CPace – What is your county doing?

County Commissioners voted unanimously during their March 22 meeting to create a county-wide Property Assessed Capital Enhancement program.

The program was established during the 2021 Legislature and allows local governments to “designate an area of the territory of the local government as a district within which an authorized local government official and the record owners of a privately owned commercial or industrial facility, covered multifamily housing accommodation…or agricultural property may enter into written contracts to impose assessments on the property to repay the financing by the owners of energy conservation projects,” as defined under state law.
