Brown Announces Federal Resources to Maintain Critical Infrastructure in Brown County | 2013-12-13 | 2013 | 2013-12 | Democrat | House | OH | Sherrod Brown | B000944 | web.archive.org | legacy | U.S. Department of Agriculture Funds Will Be Used to Maintain Roads, Purchase Dump Truck in Brown County Friday, December 13, 2013 WASHINGTON D.C. – New federal resources will provide for the purchase of a new dump truck to maintain local roadways in Brown County. U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) announced today that Brown County will receive a $22,000 grant and a $29,500 loan from the USDA Rural Development branch’s Community Facility Loan and Grant program. “It can often be difficult for rural communities to fully fund critical infrastructure projects,” Brown said. “These funds from the Agriculture Department will help Brown County maintain necessary infrastructure and support local jobs.” According to the USDA, the Community Facility Loan and Grant Program supports funding for essential community facilities in rural areas, such as health care, public safety, and education. In addition to the federal grant and loan, Brown County is providing $13,500 in funding, for a total of $65,000. The funds will be used to purchase a dump truck for use in maintaining local roads located in Byrd Township. Brown is the first Ohioan in over 40 years to serve on the U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry. He serves as the Chair of the Agriculture Subcommittee on Jobs, Rural Economic Growth, and Energy Innovation. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
