Commissioners approve resolution seeking $1.5 million state grant for Susquehanna Riverwalk extension
Summary
The board voted to authorize a grant application to the Commonwealth Finance Authority requesting $1,500,000 to continue construction of the Susquehanna Riverwalk extension.
The Lycoming County Board of Commissioners voted to approve a resolution authorizing submission of a grant application to the Commonwealth Finance Authority for $1,500,000 to support construction of the Susquehanna Riverwalk extension. The motion passed after a second and an "aye" vote from commissioners during the July 24 meeting.
A county official said the Riverwalk is heavily used and the requested funds would continue construction of the extension. The resolution authorizes staff to submit the application; no final award had been received at the time of the meeting.
The meeting record does not specify whether the application is for construction, design, or right-of-way acquisition beyond the general statement that the grant will "continue to support the Riverwalk extension construction." The board took no further related action at that session.
