Maribel Receives $95,000 from BCPL

The Board of Commissioners of Public Lands (BCPL) has approved a series State Trust Fund Loans, totaling just shy of $1.4 million. The Village of Maribel will receive $95,000 of that, to be used for financing Tax Incremental District utility improvements, while River Ridge School District in Grant County and the Village of Twin Lakes in Kenosha County split the remaining $1.3 million. The BCPL operates entirely on program revenue, without taxpayer money and distributes more than 96 cents of every dollar of interest earned on BCPL State Trust Fund investments to Wisconsin’s public schools.  The 2019 earnings of $36.2 million are the sole source of state funding for K‑12 public school library materials.
