Green Lending
Looking for financing for your green community development project?
To promote community greening and sustainability, RCAC gives priority to loan applications that incorporate significant green-build methods and materials into their projects. Green (or sustainable) practices promote building construction, infrastructure and community planning that is healthier for residents and the environment. These practices include using renewable energy, energy efficiency, water conservation, environmentally sensitive site planning, efficient building materials and attention to indoor air quality. As a leader in rural development in the West, RCAC’s green lending assists communities to realize a future where healthy neighborhoods, a sustainable economy and responsible environmental stewardship co-exist.
