Illinois local projects draft funds spark mix of town grants
Illinois lawmakers report lists of projects totaling about 650000 sought by leaders while each senate chamber member secures roughly 1300000. Small towns from Elkhart to Gridley would gain 20000 to 25000 for infrastructure and services including a senior walking trail in Hopedale and an air conditioning upgrade for Bloomington's Western Avenue Community Center. Private schools like St Theresa High School in Decatur would receive 40000 for gym facilities as Rep Dan Brady cites district talks and potential impact on a Bloomington fire station funding.
