Small Business Loans

The City of Springfield has a partnership with Justine Petersen, the largest small business micro-lender in the U.S.. Justine Petersen staff - located in the Municipal Center - provides assistance to Springfield business owners who may have difficulty obtaining a loan from a traditional bank. These businesses can now apply for advance funds designated for Springfield small businesses through this program. For more information or to set-up an appointment, call 217.789.2377 and ask to speak to Tristan Brown or email TBrown@justinepetersen.org.

Pre-Qualify: Get the Lead Out Grant

The City is now accepting pre-qualification applications from residents interested in applying for funds to help cover the cost of lead hazard remediation. This program is available to both owner-occupied homes and privately-owned rental units with four or less units. Priority will be given to households with children with Elevated Blood Lead Levels, pregnant women, or those with children ages six years or younger, and low- to moderate-income Census tracks. The first step is to pre-qualify.
