Governor M. Jodi Rell today announced the state is now accepting applications for $225 million in special bonding available through a new federal stimulus program for eligible shovel-ready construction projects throughout the state. 

“This new stimulus program is an opportunity to build upon the progress we have made on Connecticut’s responsible growth agenda by jump-starting many worthwhile projects,” said Governor Rell. “By lowering the costs of financing for these shovel-ready projects, we are providing a boost to the local and state economies and putting people to work when they need it most.”
