MORNING SENTINEL • April 14, 2022
Skowhegan Selectmen this week decided to designate about $36,000 in federal pandemic relief money for improvements to Coburn Park near downtown. The request, submitted by the Coburn Park Commission, calls for $36,175 to be spent on paving, labor, equipment, materials and trucking to work on all existing pavement at the park as well as the entrance. The quote for the work was prepared by Fine Line Paving & Grading in Madison. Town officials anticipate receiving more than $870,000 from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. The town received about half of that amount last September and anticipates the second half to be deposited sometime this September.
