Ciresi: Over $1.3 in state funding awarded for community infrastructure projects

ROYERSFORD, Jan. 20 – State Rep. Joe Ciresi, D-Montgomery, today announced that over $1.3 million in state funding was approved by the Commonwealth Financing Authority for infrastructure projects in the 146th Legislative District.

“As our communities’ advocate in Harrisburg, I worked with the Shapiro administration and the CFA to explain how these grants would enable our municipalities to make critical improvements on the roads we travel and the streets we walk that otherwise might not be possible,” Ciresi said. “I am very pleased that we’ve also received funding to improve our water infrastructure without raising local taxes.”

Funding from the Multimodal Transportation Fund includes:

  • $550,000 to Limerick Township for Phase 2 of improving Lightcap Road.
  • $139,025 to Royersford Borough for streetscape improvements along Main Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenue

Funding from the Small Water and Sewer Program includes:

  • $190,283 to North Coventry Water Authority for its Riverside Drive water main relocation project
  • $424,589 to Pottstown Borough Authority for Phase 3 of its lead service replacement project

The grants were approved Tuesday by the Commonwealth Financing Authority from the state’s Multimodal Transportation Fund and Small Water and Sewer program.
