of the grants LEO managed this spring allowed construction funding for libraries. Future grant opportunities through them may be fruitful.

and the Michigan Municipal League (MML), announced they have partnered to create the Michigan Local Capacity Enhancement Program through a $1 million grant under the federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). Under the new program, the League will provide local
communities with a robust online resource hub (MIFundingHub.org) and technical assistance to support them in understanding, seeking and successfully deploying new grant funds for economic growth, infrastructure and other community projects.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="mso-margin-top-alt:7.5pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in">
<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#323232">“LEO is excited to partner with the League on this local capacity program and to develop the much-needed MI Funding Hub,” said LEO Director
<strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Susan Corbin</span></strong>. “Michigan Communities of all sizes will have the opportunity to gain knowledge on how to successfully deploy new grant opportunities that will directly impact on their community’s
and help their residents thrive.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="mso-margin-top-alt:7.5pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in">
<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#323232">With billions in available funding for local units of government through programs like ARPA, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act there is a significant
need for communities to track funding opportunities as they become available. For many communities across Michigan, especially those small and medium-sized, navigating this process and developing projects and programs that meet their current and future needs
exceeds their capacity.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="mso-margin-top-alt:7.5pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in">
<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#323232">“Here in Saginaw, we’ve relied on the League to help us decide how to invest our ARPA funding,” said
<strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Brenda F. Moore</span></strong>, Saginaw Mayor. “This partnership between with the League and the state will ensure that we can continue to depend on this assistance moving forward. It’s great news for Michigan’s
communities and cities like Saginaw.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="mso-margin-top-alt:7.5pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in">
<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#323232">In 2020, the League launched two programs — “ServeMICity” and “MI Water Navigator” — to help communities plan and secure new recovery and infrastructure funding for projects that address
long-standing community needs. Through those technical assistance and training programs they’ve helped hundreds of communities leverage over $200 million in new state and federal funding.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#323232">“This new funding from LEO will allow the League to build on our already successful technical assistance programs that are helping communities leverage new federal funding for high
impact local programs,” <strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Dan Gilmartin</span></strong>, CEO and executive director of the League. “This work will provide local governments with the critical information and tools they need to capitalize
on this once in a generation opportunity.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="mso-margin-top-alt:7.5pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in">
<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#323232">Gilmartin explained there are billions of dollars in new federal funding available and Michigan has an opportunity to maximize access to these resources by providing support to communities
in understanding, seeking and successfully deploying new grant funds for economic growth, infrastructure and other community projects.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
