- $250,000 to improve the Feichtner Memorial Building;
- $202,000 to replace the Huron County Transfer Station Scale; and
- $600,000 for Camp Timberlane Infrastructure Improvements.
“I am proud to see taxpayer dollars make their way back to Huron County,” said Stein. “These projects will make positive changes in our community for years to come.”
In addition to these local investments, this legislation also includes statewide capital investments of:
- $600 million for the School Building Program Assistance Fund;
- $400 million for the Public Works Commission Local Public Infrastructure and State Capital Improvement Program; and
