W-burg to Receive Loan for Police, Truck With Plow

United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) State Director Bob Morgan announced that USDA is investing more than $16 million in 30 essential rural community facility projects and equipment in rural Pennsylvania.

“These facilities are part of the fabric of the rural communities they serve,” Morgan said. “These investments will improve public buildings and provide much needed equipment for our local communities throughout rural Pennsylvania. USDA Rural Development is proud to administer these loans and grants where they are needed most.”

Morgan highlighted the projects that USDA is making in two programs that will fund essential community services to help rural America build back better, stronger and more equitably than ever before. These programs include Community Facilities Direct Loans and Grants, and Economic Impact Initiative Grants.

The investments include Williamsburg Borough. Williamsburg received a Community Facility Direct Loan and Grant of $46,400 to purchase body cameras for the police department and a pickup truck with plow.
