Sidewalk Revitalization

Last week, Congressman Brad Schneider announced nearly $12.5 million in community project funding for the 10th Congressional District, which included $580,694 for the Village of Antioch, to complete sidewalk and business entrance accessibility improvements along Main and Lake streets in the downtown area. This investment will improve safety and access for individuals with disability and mobility challenges, helping create a more welcoming and inclusive downtown. The grant was secured through Congressman Schneider’s leadership and the collaborative efforts of Village staff and the Village Board. Learn more here.
