Bagg’s Square Commercial Corridor
Entrepreneur Investment Program (EIP)

The EIP program is designed to assist with the expansion and/or improvement costs of small businesses including operations for new or expanded business and exterior building rehabilitations that will help create jobs, remove blight, expand the tax base and increase economic vitality in the Bagg’s Square commercial corridor. The City of Utica has allocated Community Development Block Grant funding to seed this project. Successful applicants within Bagg’s Square are eligible to receive matching funding in the amount of $1,000 to $5,000 per business in the form of reimbursements for approved expenses.
