Marysville is set to receive $250,000 for road repairs, as part of a grant announced by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. The funding will help fix Pennsylvania Avenue and 15th Street. The state’s Community Service Infrastructure Fund supports small cities, like Marysville, with populations under 10,000, to improve local roads. Whitmer emphasized the importance of these repairs for saving drivers time and money, while keeping roads safer across Michigan. Marysville is one of 16 small cities benefiting from this initiative.
