Funding Programs/Incentives

The York County Economic Alliance serves as a resource for information on various federal, state and local economic development financing programs.  The staff of the Economic Alliance works with businesses to identify economic development loan programs for real estate acquisition and expansion and equipment or working capital projects for which they may be eligible.

The Alliance staffs entities that administer certain loan programs, including the Pennsylvania Industrial Development Authority, Small Business First and First Industries loan programs.  The organization also staffs three issuers of tax-exempt financing: the York County Industrial Development Authority (YCIDA), the General Authority of Southcentral Pennsylvania (GASP) and the York County Hospital Authority (YCHA).  In addition, the Small Business Administration (SBA) 504 loan program is now administered in York County through a partnership with the Lancaster EDC Finance Corporation and the Economic Alliance.
