Rural Development is amending its
Community Facility Loan regulation to enable the Agency to make
loans to qualified lenders (hereinafter referred to as
“re-lenders”) who will then in turn re-loan those funds to eligible
applicants/borrowers for eligible projects under the Community
Facility Loan program. This effort provides a new way to build
financing capacity and achieve Administrative and Congressional
goals of providing economic benefit in areas of greatest need in
rural America. The projects re-lenders finance will improve access
to health care, education and other critical services, which will
help ensure that rural communities are strong, viable and
economically well off.
