Did You Know?
Since 2008, the California Recycle Underutilized Sites (CALReUSE) Assessment and Remediation programs have positively influenced the health and safety, housing production, and economic development in California communities by contributing to the cleanup of 1,018 acres of contaminated land and the availability of 7,540 housing units across 12 California counties. More than 50% of CALReUSE funded projects are located in disadvantaged communities and 75% are located in low-income communities.
2017 was a banner year for CPCFA’s Tax Exempt Bond Program. CPCFA sold 20 bond issues totaling over $653 million in new tax-exempt and refunding bonds which is more than double the annual issuance from any year since 2012. Also of note, since 2013 three out of four bond recipients have been small businesses.
