Note to the press: Please include the following statement from State Rep. Ron Bacon (R-Chandler) in your coverage of the recent announcement made by the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs that 24 rural Hoosier communities, including Chrisney, will receive more than $15.3 million in federal grant funding to improve water infrastructure:
STATEHOUSE (Aug. 6, 2020) – "Making infrastructure improvements to local treatment facilities and water supply and distribution systems benefits the families, school, churches and businesses within Chrisney. For communities, especially those in rural areas, allocating this much money toward water infrastructure can be a challenge. But with this additional $700,000 in federal funding, Chrisney can move ahead on important projects that need to be done on behalf of those who call the small town home."
