Council flags federal SS4A grant opportunity for safe streets planning
Summary
The council was alerted to the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) planning and demonstration grant program; members said they would forward the notice and consider whether Red Lodge should prepare an application or concept for future cycles.
The Chair told members she received an email about the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant opportunity and urged the council to keep the program on its radar for potential planning and demonstration funds.
The transcript records the Chair saying the notice described two funding categories for 2026 and that the U.S. Department of Transportation expects to award between 400 and 700 grants in a planning/demonstration category. The Chair said she would forward the email and that Montana State University's Western Transportation Institute has been leading SS4A work in the state.
Speakers noted uncertainty in the transcript about an amount that was read aloud (the audio is unclear in places); the Chair and members emphasized the item was a "put this on your radar" notice rather than a solicitation requiring immediate action. No application decision was made during the meeting; staff were asked to forward the notice and keep council informed.
