Parks to get more than $40,000 of improvements

February 09, 2022

A reimbursement grant the Village of Saukville recently received will be used to fund park projects.

The village received a $85,900 reimbursement grant from the Federal Land and Water Conservation Fund to reimburse borrowing the village used to complete upgrades such as installing tennis courts in Grady Park in 2018.

Unlike some grants that are issued up front, the village needed to complete the park project before receiving the funds.

Village Administrator Dawn Wagner told trustees about the grant award during a Jan. 18 Finance Committee meeting.
