Back to Early Summer 2024U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici visits CMH
In March, U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici stopped by CMH and the BuildCMH Expansion Project headquarters during a visit to Astoria. While here, she spoke with the project team and toured through life-size cardboard mockups of rooms that will be included in the expansion.
The congresswoman has helped CMH secure millions in federal grant funds, including the FEMA BRIC grant of $20 million, for the project. The BRIC grant will help achieve resiliency goals outlined in project plans, including construction of a deep pile foundation and a tsunami vertical evacuation structure able to accommodate 1,900 people, as well as the location of critical infrastructure, generators and a helipad on the roof.
