SLIB funds impact local projects
31 Dec 2022
A $5 million expansion of the Hub on Smith is still a possibility, although state officials tabled a request for partial funding for the project early this month.
On Dec. 15, the State Loan and Investment Board finished allocating over $80 million in federal COVID-19 Health and Human Services American Rescue Plan Act (APRA) funds to agencies across Wyoming. While many projects were denied, SLIB tabled a request from the Hub on Smith for $3,007,618 for its expansion project.
All of the funding set aside in the 2022 Legislative Session was allocated. There are no remaining dollars to be awarded, unless the Legislature appropriates more funding during the 2023 session, according to Elizabeth Blackwell, grants and loans manager for the OSLI.
