Lending Information

Loans for Local Governments & Non-Profits

Tri County Council can offer loans of up to $500,000 to local governments and non-profits through our Revolving Loan Funds. Just like our loans to small businesses, the loan must be for a project that has a job creation component – but we can offer flexible terms that align with your project structure.

For example, we lent funds to Allegany County Economic Development for a portion of the construction of a new building in one of the county business parks. The building was built for a specific tenant with a lease to own arrangement. With attractive interest rates, our loans can free up additional cash for the County to put toward other projects.

What They’re Saying:

Everyday Earthe

“Securing a loan through Tri County Council gave me the chance to make a transformative investment in my business: the purchase of a RAM press. This piece of equipment, far beyond what I could have afforded on my own, is opening the door for me to produce handmade dinnerware at a sustainable scale. Because of Tri County Council’s lender‐friendly terms and the scale of funding available, I was able to take my original dream of creating unique, durable pottery and expand it into a bigger vision than I had even imagined.

Beyond the funding itself, working with Chris and her team was an exceptional experience. From answering my many questions to even visiting my studio in person, they made the process clear, smooth, and personal. I didn’t just receive a loan—I felt the genuine support of people who are invested in my success and goals. That combination of resources and encouragement is what’s making this dream possible.”
