New $200,000 Grant to Boost Broadview Alley Repair

(Broadview, IL) – A newly-awarded federal government grant of $200,000 to the Village of Broadview will allow the village to expand its alley repair program.

The $200,000 Community Development Block Grant will boost Broadview’s alley repair initiative to a total of $452,000 dedicated to alley reconstruction, allowing for two additional alleys to be upgraded on the north side of Roosevelt Road. A total of six alleys north of Roosevelt Road will be repaired.

“Upgrading Broadview’s streets, sidewalks, alleys and other infrastructure is a key strategy of my administration to bring new business, new jobs, and new residents to the town,” said Mayor Katrina Thompson. “That is why my staff and I pursue every possible federal or state grant available to invest in Broadview because we must build our own prosperity right here at home.”

Construction crews will be out in force starting in Fall 2021.
