Money for Miami County’s future

Miami County awarded

millions for area development By Michelle Boswell mboswell@thepaperofmiami.com Miami, Howard, and Tipton counties have been awarded $30 million in regional funding to complete major economic and quality-of-life projects. These projects are meant to bring hundreds of millions of dollars in public and private investment to these counties. The $30 million will be distributed between the three counties to complete some of those projects. The money comes from Indiana’s READI program, which was formed to push regions together to develop economic opportunities, workforce development and useful benefits for those within the specified area. Seventeen regions representing all of the 92 counties in Indiana ended up receiving funding from the READI program. The total amount of funding is $500 million. The READI program launched in May 2021, with $500 million that came from the federal American Rescue Plan. This funding was put into Indiana’s two-year budget. See READI, Page 2
