Municipal Port Assistance Program; establish for certain municipalities.

Summary

The bill would establish a Municipal Port Assistance Program for municipalities with fewer than 10,000 residents that operate ports. It would give those towns priority access to state multimodal transportation and ports‑grant money for capital projects such as docks, road access, bulkheads, utilities, and freight connections, and would lower or waive matching‑fund requirements. The aim is to boost local economic development, freight movement, and public safety.
