In 1997, Escanaba’s City Council decided that creating a Brownfield Redevelopment Authority would be in the best interest of the public. The City of Escanaba Brownfield Authority (CEBRA) designates Brownfield redevelopment zones and individual properties that are functionally obsolete or are likely to be environmentally distressed pursuant to Act 381 of 1996. The goal of this Authority is to encourage the reuse and redevelopment of property which is less desirable than “greenfields” – property which has not been previously developed by reimbursing developers for costs involved in making damaged property as desirable as untouched property.
The Authority meets at the call of the Chair, City Hall in Room C101
