Libby receives $450,000 towards repair of Flower Creek Dam

The City of Libby has received $450,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to repair the Flower Creek Dam, the only source of drinking water for the citizens of Libby. It is a drop in the bucket toward the total cost of the replacement dam, but it is half a million dollars the City did not have.

Governor Steve Bullock announced "The grant will go directly to creating good-paying construction jobs for repairing the dam in Libby", in making the award.

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, are meant to promote and develop local communities and their ability to provide essential services, such as wastewater systems.
