Municipal Authority reports expected $1M state grant and $1M federal grant; seeks bridge loans
Summary
At the March 24 meeting the Municipal Authority told Council it met with its grant‑writing compliance team and expects $1,000,000 in state/other grants and a $1,000,000 federal grant pending the President's signature; it is exploring bridge loans from ACNB and the USDA to cover timing gaps.
During liaison reports on March 24, Council President Patricia Smith summarized a recent Municipal Authority meeting with its grant‑writing compliance team and said the Authority is expected to receive approximately $1,000,000 in state and other grants and an additional $1,000,000 federal grant once the President signs the federal budget. The minutes do not specify which projects the grants will fund.
Smith also said the Municipal Authority received the Consumer Confidence report and remains compliant with a satisfactory rating. To bridge timing gaps between expenditures and incoming grant receipts, the Authority is looking to ACNB and the USDA for short‑term bridge financing.
The minutes record these as status updates rather than Council actions; no Council vote or formal allocation was recorded at the March 24 meeting. The minutes do not identify explicit grant program names or dollar breakouts by project.
