Senator Roger Victory, representing Michigan’s 31st Senate District, announced the approval of over $25 million in funding aimed at improving infrastructure and public safety in West Michigan as part of the recently passed state budget.
According to Victory, “The overall budget invests in our local roads, cuts taxes for working families and seniors, and reduces overall government spending.”
Within the district, $920,000 has been allocated to Blendon Township to upgrade its water system. Park Township will receive $600,000 to help the fire department’s marine division acquire the former U.S. Coast Guard station.
The fiscal year 2026 budget also establishes a new public safety trust fund, providing resources for local law enforcement and community violence intervention. The 31st Senate District is set to receive over $630,000 from this fund.
“These projects are significant investments to improve infrastructure and public safety in our communities,” Victory said. “I am glad to have supported funding for these projects and look forward to continuing to advocate for the good folks of West Michigan.”
Of the total infrastructure funding, Allegan County is expected to receive about $6 million for road improvements, while Ottawa County will get more than $14 million. Cities and villages within the district will also see increased funding for local roads.
“My constituents have continued to voice their concerns over the state of our local roads. This budget and the policy changes we made alongside it will finally ensure a sustained, long-term investment in our local roads,” Victory said.
The 31st Senate District covers parts of Ottawa and Allegan counties.
