Funding secured by U.S. Senator Gary Peters is making essential infrastructure improvements possible for Saginaw Transit Authority Regional Services (STARS). $1.2M was included in the Transit, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Industries section of the Consolidated Appropriations Report, FY2024. This funding will be matched by the State for a total of $1.5M in funding for STARS.

“These funds will go toward a roof replacement and other sorely needed improvements,” says Glenn Steffens, Executive Director of STARS, adding, “It will also free up local funds to help toward sustaining current operations. We thank Senator Peters for securing this funding at a crucial time in our growth.”
