Municipal Vulnerability Prepareness Grant Program (MVP) FY27

The Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness Grant Program (MVP) FY27, solicitation number BD-27-1042-ENV-ENV01-134963, is a two-year grant opportunity administered by the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs. The program is designed to support eligible municipalities and Tribes in revisiting community resilience priorities and implementing projects that build community resilience. Funding is distributed in two installments of 50,000 dollars each per community, totaling 100,000 dollars, with the first installment covering initial planning steps and the second dedicated to implementing a seed project. The application deadline is December 11, 2026, and must be submitted electronically via the greenhub.mass.gov portal. While the agency expects to award funding to every community listed in the program's specific eligibility attachment that applies, other eligible entities are evaluated based on criteria including prior participation in MVP 1.0, demonstrated need, capacity, and commitment to priority populations in burdened areas. Selected applicants must provide a signed letter of commitment from a chief official and complete a Commonwealth Standard Contract Form and W-9 to finalize the award. Contract performance is subject to available funding, and any extensions to the two-year period must be requested at least two months before the contract end date.
