Junction City has been awarded $425,000 dollars in Kansas Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program funding.  The Junction City CDBG funding announcement came today in a letter from Kansas Governor Laura Kelly to Junction City Mayor Pat Landes.

The money has been earmarked to be used on a Spring Valley Road improvement project.  According to the letter, the funds being awarded to Junction City are contingent upon receipt by the state of Kansas of funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and successful completion of appropriate contractual conditions in conjunction with the Kansas Department of Commerce.
