This City Program facilitates redevelopment of brownfields. Phase I and II environmental site assessments (ESAs) are available free for eligible properties. These ESAs are the same type of environmental investigations required by banks as part of most real estate loans. For additional information, contact Jedediah Greenfield with the City of Houston's Brownfields Redevelopment Program at 832.395.2699 or brownfields@houstontx.gov.
Limited cleanup grants are also available for qualified non-profit or government brownfield projects.
