Congressman Petri Vows Support of Port Breakwater Repairs

U.S. Rep. Tom Petri told city officials on Monday he is prepared to help move along repairs of the deteriorating breakwater, which could include federal grants.

City officials met with Petri on Monday about the deteriorating breakwater, and officials with the Army Corps of Engineers, which is responsible for the structure, will be in Port Washington next week to assess the breakwater.

City officials hope to secure federal funding to help in upgrades on the breakwater, according to the Press.
