— from Victoria Compton —
A heads-up: The Public Facilities Financing Assistance Program (PFFAP) application deadline is on June 15. San Juan County runs this program using funding from gasoline taxes.
This funding can help pay for public facilities projects in San Juan County, either as loans or outright grants. This year’s funding is $190,726.
Applications must be specifically for “public facilities” projects, including bridges, incubation facilities, telecommunications infrastructure, transportation infrastructure, and the like.
For more information see: sanjuanco.com/grants/pffap/docs/PFFAP_2015_Funding_Application.pdf. Inquiries should be addressed to the office of the County Manager at (360) 378-3870.
