SPRINGFIELD – To promote economic development, Springfield will see $150,000 in grants thanks to the support of State Senator Doris Turner.
Through the Research in Illinois to Spur Economic Recovery (RISE) program, Springfield will see funding to help the city and economic development organizations develop and create plans to foster relationships with businesses.
“This funding will give the city additional support to maximize opportunities to invest in plans to develop Springfield downtown and the Medical District,” Turner (D-Springfield) said. “Our goal is to support Springfield and the local coalition of economic development organizations by investing in this collaboration that will generate economic growth and create new jobs.”
