Comments on USDA Rural Development Needed
0 Comments
The USDA Rural Development is accepting written comments from stakeholders about rural development priorities for President Obama’s 2013 budget and 2012 Farm Bill principles. USDA Rural Development funds programs that are critical to rural counties such as rural water/wastewater infrastructure, community facilities, hospitals and clinics, broadband expansion, housing, renewable energy and business development initiatives. This is an important opportunity to share insights about how Rural Development can enhance its program administration and delivery to rural counties. The ‘bricks & mortar’ funding available through Rural Development plays a key role in supporting and expanding rural communities here in Colorado and across the nation.
