County applies for $4 million state parks grant for fairgrounds action park
Summary
County manager Dustin said staff submitted a $4,000,000 grant application to state parks — $2 million requested with a $2 million local match — to fund an action park at the fairgrounds, alongside ongoing pond, sidewalk and ADA improvements.
County manager Dustin updated the board on several fairgrounds projects and said staff submitted a state parks grant application totaling $4,000,000 ($2,000,000 requested with a $2,000,000 match) to support an action park at the fairgrounds.
He described completed work to deepen and seal a pond, ongoing sidewalk construction under a Community Development Block Grant project and ADA parking improvements. Dustin said state staff will review the grant package for about a month before forwarding to federal officials who control the funding source.
No timeline for award decisions was provided; Dustin said staff expects a period of review and will coordinate with state partners during the application process.
