Administration

UAACOG is a non-profit agency established for the purpose of uniting local governments in mutually beneficial activities that better serve communities on a regional basis than on an individual basis.  UAACOG provides technical assistance to counties, cities, and special districts in meeting the growing demands placed on them by area growth and declining energy markets.

Assistance in grant preparation, project development, administration, community  development, and assistance on financial packaging of projects and programs is available. Examples of projects planned in the region over the next few months are leadership in workforce development, continued regional recycling efforts, workforce housing options,  business park development, and regional 208 water planning and river restoration activities.

UAACOG also reviews state and federal grant applications originating within Region 13 and provides feedback to local government applicants to foster the improvement of grant requests submitted. As part of this effort UAACOG periodically offers grantsmanship training to local governments and non-profits. UAACOG also maintains a resource library of social/economic data, grant programs and other funding sources for use by local governments.
