Evansville, IN— 1/26/22— On Monday, January 23, Commissioners Cheryl Musgrave and Ben Shoulders presented the Evansville African American Museum with a $100,000 Check from the American Rescue Plan funds.
Kori Miller, Executive Director of the Museum stated he is thankful to the Vanderburgh County Commissioners and Vanderburgh County Council for understanding the significant contributions of the culture and arts community to our city and that these funds will definitely help offset funding lost during Covid, and with the completion of the Porterhouse renovation project.
I am sure the museum is deserving of the money. BUT !!! Our infrastructure is crumbling. The gas lines need to be updated.(Weinbach Ave Explosion example). The two major fires recently demostrates that our water lines need to be updated also. Our roadways of course with pot holes and need to expand for our growing community.
Its the American Rescue Money.. Come on let’s rebuild our city!!! I dunno but $100,000 is a lot of money to me
