Commission OKs mayors' SLIB choices
“Those two applications will most likely move forward to the state for consideration out of more than $30 million in emergency funds”
The mayors of the nine incorporated towns in Big Horn County met Thursday in Lovell to review 36 project applications for $2.9 million in County-wide Consensus Block Grant money handed down by the state to be divvied up for this fiscal year.
Nine capital improvement projects totalling $2,530,063 were recommended for funding by the mayors, with another six projects submitted by special tax districts recommended for funding to the tune of $334,441.
