Initiative: Infrastructure Stimulus Fund *
Description: This project involves maintaining a safe and structurally sound park as well as updating the play structures and equipment in the park.
Federal Funding: $66,667
Total Project Value: $200,000
* About the Program
The ISF complements existing federal infrastructure funding by targeting short-term objectives for economic stimulus. To further this goal of rapid economic stimulus, the ISF will focus mostly on construction-readiness and the extent to which the funding will maintain the safety and prolong the life of the asset, as important project selection criteria.
