American cities have been pushed to the limit in maintaining municipal fiscal health, squeezed by federal mandates coinciding with decreases in state and federal aid, and a continuing backlash against the bedrock source of revenue for local government, the property tax. And all this is just at a moment when investments in infrastructure have never been more necessary for metropolitan regions. George W. “Mac” McCarthy, president and CEO of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, will explore the use of the mechanism of value capture to finance urban infrastructure — widely used in Latin America, but just starting to get attention in the U.S.

A municipality has to consider its vision and mission, what it’s long term infrastructure plans are (Integrated Development Planning) and have a clear understanding of its infrastructure funding options i.e own revenue, infrastructure grants available and the strength of its balance sheet (borrowing power).
A municipality will have to undertake vigorous project preparation process to avoid the risk of budget and time overruns. This process is technically cumbersome and with municipalities lacking these skills it needs to be outsourced to guarantee a project concept that is bankable
The processes of pledging grants is provided in guidelines provided by National Treasury and the relevant sector departments.
