The Department of Community and Economic Development Thursday announced a series of Municipal Assistance Program grants including a grant to Fayette County for an MS4 Stormwater Manager position.

The county will receive $16,350 for the position which will assist municipal officials and constituencies with federal and state MS4 and stormwater management requirements and best practices, and the MAP funds will support the position’s first year salary, training, supplies, and equipment.

The Municipal Assistance Program provides technical resources and assistance for municipalities, consolidation, regional efforts as well as serving as a resource for local government officials, developers, and citizens interested in planning to improve, grow, and enhance communities.
