Today, Congressman John Moolenaar applauded $50 million in federal funding for the reimbursement of costs made to repair roads and bridges damaged by the May 2020 flooding in Midland and Gladwin counties.

“This important funding is made possible by the presidential disaster declaration I helped secure for our community in 2020, which has brought more than $100 million in federal relief to Midland, Gladwin, and the region,” said Congressman John Moolenaar. "Now, the state and local governments that rebuilt the roads and bridges will be paid by the federal government for the work they have done. I am proud to have led the rebuilding efforts for our region and I will continue to work with local leaders as these efforts go forward.”

As was reported by MLive earlier this morning, "the funding will help reimburse an estimated $102 million in flooding damage to roads and bridges eligible for federal aid, according to MDOT."
