Community Development

We’re here to improve communities and quality of life. How? We partner with local governments to develop and build infrastructure and community facility projects from start to finish. From clean water to sewers, sidewalks and parks, and much more, we empower communities to address the needs you may not even see.

34 YEARS
1,000+ PROJECTS
$120 Billion INVESTMENT

Much of the project funding comes from the Community Development Block Grant, which we administer for two-thirds of the SEDA-COG region.
