Senator Tammy Baldwin recently announced that over $255 million of the Omnibus Appropriations Act is coming to Wisconsin, and a portion of that is slated for our area.
The Sturgeon Bay Historical Society will be getting $3.3 million for an agricultural museum and community gathering space at the Door County Granary.
Also, Brown County will be getting $100,000 in funding to support mental health outreach by creating additional staffing capacity to conduct help underserved populations within the county access behavioral health services.
The largest portion of the cash is going to Fort McCoy, located between Tomah and Sparta.
The military installation is getting a total of $69 million for new Officer and Enlisted barracks.
Senator Baldwin said of the money coming to Wisconsin, “These community-driven projects will reach every corner of Wisconsin, with critical investments for roads, bridges and water infrastructure, workforce development, access to health and child care, improvements for emergency services, and so much more.”
