Welcome to Johnstown
Redevelopment Authority
Established in 1949, the Johnstown Redevelopment Authority provides a variety of programs to administer and manage the elimination of blighted areas for residential, recreational, commercial and industrial opportunities. The Authority is experienced in permitting, real estate site assembly, financial package assistance, grant applications and local tax relief to help your business get started and grow.
With the decline of the steel industry, the efforts of JRA now concentrate on diversification of the Johnstown economy from a one-industry city. Clearing of urban and industrial land of both outdated structures and environmental liabilities, while encouraging small scale resources to businesses, makes this area a great place to both work and live.
We would like the chance to show your business why locating in Johnstown makes sense.

JRA PROJECTS
The mission of the Redevelopment Authority is to eliminate blighting conditions that inhibit neighborhood reinvestment, to foster and promote business expansion and job creation, and to facilitate new business and housing development. Toward that end, the Redevelopment Authority prepares and implements comprehensive redevelopment plan and assembles real estate for redevelopment.
JOHNSTOWN REGIONAL SEWAGE
The Greater Johnstown Wastewater Treatment System consists of the wastewater treatment plant, interceptor sewer lines, and individual collection systems in each municipality. JRS is responsible for the treatment plant and the large interceptors within the City of Johnstown. The collection systems and smaller interceptors are the responsibility of the municipalities in which they are located
BROWNFIELDS
JRA recognizes that land recycling and brownfield redevelopment are vital components for smart growth and economic recovery. The revitalization of our brownfield sites can attract new and diversified development that will complement our goals of recycling existing industrial sites and buildings, preserving greenspace and removing any potential health and environmental threats.
