Le-Ax May Obtain More FHA Funds If Bids Run Higher
Le-Ax Water Distribution Corp faces a potential funding boost if bid prices for the fourth phase exceed 1.6 million in federal funds. FHA officials say higher bids could trigger more loan or grant money, but grant release is currently blocked by the Office of Budget and Management and requires congressional action. The plan aims to raise the plant to capacity for peak usage and may face EPA expansion requirements.
