Communities

Planning with purpose. Results that last.

Strong communities are bolstered by thoughtful planning, reliable infrastructure and the ability to turn vision into action. Idaho Commerce’s Community Development team works alongside city and county leaders to help move projects forward and prepare communities for sustainable growth.

Through strategic investment, revitalization support and development planning, the team bolsters public facilities, improves readiness and strengthens the places where people live, work and play.

Idaho Commerce’s community development grants support resilient, future-focused infrastructure investments that drive success across the state.

Take Your Community Beyond.
