This is to notify all interested parties that Powder River County Public Transportation is applying for $23,000.00 through the capital assistance grant. The capital assistance grant is funded by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and administered by the Montana Department of Transportation. FTA funds will be used to convert our 2023 9-passenger Ford Transit ADA Ambulette from a rear-lift to a side-lift, for providing transportation services to the general public, senior citizens and persons with disabilities. We also would like to purchase AED Defibrillators, Life Vac Portable Suction Devices for each vehicle, and Survival backpacks to place in our vehicles due to the distances we travel and the elements we travel in. The application is on file at 302 E. Holt, Broadus, MT. If requested, a public hearing will be held and public notice indicating the location, date and time of the hearing will be provided. For more information or for those who require accommodations for disabilities, contact Powder River County Transportation, Christy Olson, 302 E. Holt, Broadus, MT, (406)436-2243 or Department of Transportation, Helena at 444-4210 (voice) or 444-7696 (TTY). The Powder River County Transportation will be requesting financial assistance from the Montana Department of Transportation and the Federal Transit Administration.
