Grant Information
Funding opportunities
At any given time, there are dozens of grant available that may meet the needs of municipal utility members and their cities. When MMUA is aware of projects members are planning, we will attempt to notify them of funding opportunities that may be considered. MMUA publishes current funding announcements of interest to members each week in the Digest.

MMUA can assist with:

- Project eligibility review
- Grant strategy discussions
