Securing financial resources to unlock essential projects
Our Funding Team helps clients win the competitive grants and loans they need to build essential infrastructure. We monitor a huge range of federal and state programs, finding money for water, wastewater, stormwater, resiliency and more. Woodard & Curran consults with federal and state agencies to monitor changing grant requirements to best meet our clients’ needs. And our applications have a capture rate of more than 70%, meaning our clients win competitive grants and loans more often than not.
Financial issues account for three of the top four concerns expressed by Water and Sewer Utility managers, and capital needs are projected to grow by nearly 50% in the coming decade. Using proven financial planning tools and approaches refined in the private sector, we help clients restructure their finances and reprioritize projects to deliver better return on investment and increase long-term stability. From rate studies and interlocal agreements to public-private partnerships and alternative financing strategies, we have the expertise to deliver long-term financial stability.
