The Escambia County Board of County Commissioners anticipates voting to accept the approved MYIP in September.

Approval of the MYIP allows Escambia County to begin individual grant applications for the projects included in the MYIP. It is anticipated that final adoption of grant awards will occur in January 2018, with projects beginning shortly thereafter.
