Effingham, IL-(Effingham Radio)- From the City of Effingham Facebook page:
We are excited to announce the City has been awarded $3,000,000 through the (DCEO) Regional Site Readiness Grant Program!
Governor Pritzker made the announcement of the grant recipients. These funds, as a part of the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), are to better prepare sites to attract future investment and new job opportunities in industrial properties. Effingham was one of 11 Capital Ready grantees to receive funding in the state.
This project will construct approximately 1,500 feet of street, water and sewer for West Airport Road. This also includes the installation of traffic signals at Airport Road and RT 45. The total project costs are estimated at $3.75 Million, in which 80% is grant funded and 20% will be matched by the City. We would like to send out a huge thank you to all those involved to make this happen!
