$14 Million In Funding For UC Cities And Counties

Governor Bill Lee’s plan to get money into the hands of county and city governments statewide will mean about $14 million for Upper Cumberland cities and counties.

The Governor’s administration made applications available to local municipalities Tuesday. Each county will receiver at least $500,000 while each city will receive $30,000 or more.

Funds will be available July 1 to be used for road projects, information technology upgrades, capital maintenance, utility system upgrades and public safety projects. Certain disaster-related expenses are also eligible for funding.

Putnam County can use its money for tornado cleanup, according to state officials.
