BARNESVILLE Village officials on Monday announced that two local projects had been selected for federal funding totaling over $3.5 million.
Mayor Dale Bunting announced that the long-in-the-works Slope Creek Waterline Project had been selected for funding through the Army Corps of Engineers’ Section 594 Program in the amount of $1,075,000, applicable toward project design and construction costs.
“I definitely want to thank Congressman Bill Johnson for his support, as well as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers a lot for that,” Bunting said. “It helps us and helps us keep our community water rates down and we can get this line in. It just helps all the way around. We really appreciate all the funding we’re getting for this water line. It’s a wonderful thing.”
