34 <br /> How It Works : <br /> •County joins the program — The County adopts <br /> resolutions and holds a public hearing to join the <br /> statewide NC C-PACE Program . <br /> •Property owner applies — A business or property <br /> owner applies to EDPNC for project approval . <br /> •Private lender funds the work — A private lender <br /> provides the upfront money for improvements like <br /> energy efficiency, solar, or resilience upgrades. <br /> •Paid back over time — The owner repays the loan <br /> through a line added to their property tax bill . <br /> •No County cost or risk — The County helps enable <br /> the program but doesn't handle money or take on <br /> liability. <br />
