Rock County may have some projects eligible for federal stimulus dollars.

Rock County Administrator Craig Knutson is very interested in exploring what areas qualify. He says topping the list are several bridge repair projects, improvements at the Southern Wisconsin Regional Airport, and increase in Medicaid reimbursements. Knutson says these projects are the shovel ready type intended by the stimulus package.

Knutson has already met with his staff about applying for this aid.
