Commissioners award $89,100 in park renovation grants
County commissioners recently awarded a little more than $89,100 in park renovation grants for 12 projects in the county.
At their meeting Wednesday, commissioners awarded 12 grants from a list of 21 applications for funding. Most of the grants were $7,500 and some were slightly less, and each municipality is contributing to its project.
The most expensive project is a $289,566 walking trial and a playground in Slippery Rock.
The borough received a $245,000 grant from the state Department of Community and Economic Development for the project, and the commissioners approved a $7,500 grant.
