Your examples needed to promote historic legislation
By: @Kyle Packham
We hear it regularly, special districts and the communities they serve are left out of federal funding, overlooked, or mired in bureaucracy. The National Special Districts Association (NSDA) needs your examples of challenges in accessing federal funding in order to finally do something about it.
Please respond by March 25 to facilitate federal advocacy efforts related to the pending reintroduction of legislation developed by NSDA to define special districts in federal law and ensure equitable access to funding.
NOTE: The survey is NOT related to the Trump administration’s recent federal funding freeze and the ongoing challenges that some special districts are experiencing with accessing/receiving payments/reimbursements from certain federal agencies.
The NSDA survey focuses on systemic barriers districts face in securing or competing generally for federal funds. Your feedback will support NSDA’s advocacy to pass our legislation to establish a formal federal definition of "special district" and ensure equitable access to federal financial assistance.
