Community facility 09/10 stimulus grants

The federal Project Grant award of $138,900.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Housing Service under the Community Facilities Loans and Grants program (CFDA 10.766). The grant was awarded on August 15, 2024 to Barton Village Inc., a U.S. local government entity registered as a municipality, to support the construction, enlargement, extension, or improvement of community facilities that deliver critical services to rural residents in Vermont.

The grant funds will likely be used for infrastructure and essential service enhancements, such as projects related to fire protection, public safety, healthcare, education, utility services, or community centers. This aligns with the program's goal of improving quality of life and infrastructure in rural communities. Barton Village Inc. has also served as a sub-grantee on federal disaster recovery and public assistance grants, suggesting its involvement in implementing FEMA-related projects at the local level in coordination with the Vermont Department of Public Safety.
