State Rep. Brad Paquette hosted over 90 community members for a town hall meeting on Monday to discuss road funding in Michigan. He was joined by State Representative Jack O’Malley, chair of the House Transportation Committee, and Senator Kim LaSata, vice chair of the Senate Transportation Committee

“It was fantastic to see so many engaged citizens attend to learn more about road funding,” Rep. Paquette said. “I appreciate that Chair O’Malley and Senator LaSata were able to join us and add valuable insight to the discussions.”

Rep. O’Malley is traveling to different regions of the state discussing road funding directly with local residents. “My goal is to make sure the House Transportation Committee is asking the questions you, the citizens of Michigan, want answered,” Rep. O’Malley said. “I appreciated Rep. Paquette’s invitation, as it allowed me to share some of our findings with residents of Southwest Michigan as well as listen directly to their ideas and concerns regarding fixing our roads.”

The town hall took place on Monday, July 8 at the Niles District Library in Niles.

Rep. Paquette and his guests provided an update on current road funding discussions, a brief summary on the history of road funding in Michigan and thoughts on potential options to improve the quality of our infrastructure around the state. They also discussed innovative and cost saving ideas being tested or utilized throughout Michigan and North America.
