As we reported earlier, Knox County was funded the entire 1.5 million dollar amount for its road projects. That funding through the state’s Community Crossings Matching Grant; the money totals was announced at a session this morning in the Clay County city of Brazil.
Along with Knox County, Sullivan and Gibson Counties also got the maximum million-five, with Pike County getting very near that amount. Martin County wsa granted nearly a million dollars.
The largest community grant was Linton; that city got 300-thousand dollars in grant funds. Shoals was next, with nearly 258-thousand dollars. Other amounts were nearly 225-thousand dollars for Washington; 100-thousand dollars plus for Patoka; and over 61 thousand dollars for Winslow.
The next round of Community Crossings Matching Grants will be awarded later this year.
