Commissioners approve submission of Lowe's grant application to repair Lakeside boat ramp
Summary
Henderson County authorized submission of a Lowe's Community Improvement Grant application (the commissioner said she sought $100,000) to repair the concrete boat ramp, upgrade docks and picnic areas at Lakeside Recreation Area parcel ID 220219 in Precinct 1; the court will return to accept any award.
A county commissioner requested and the Henderson County Commissioners unanimously approved submission of a Lowe's Community Improvement Grant application to fund repairs and upgrades at the public boat ramp in Lakeside Recreation Area (Parcel ID 220219) in Precinct 1.
The commissioner said she applied for $100,000 from the Lowe's grant program, which provides funding and volunteer assistance to community improvement projects. The proposed work would repair the concrete ramp, improve boat docks, and enhance picnic-area safety and public access. The court required that, if awarded, acceptance of grant funds would return to court for formal approval.
Court members thanked the commissioner for pursuing the grant and noted the ramp is one of the county's last free boat ramps, and that Precinct 1 has maintained it since 2007. The motion to submit the application passed unanimously.
