(Middletown, NY)-Senator John J. Bonacic (R/C/I-Mt. Hope) announced today that he has secured a $50,000 grant for the Town of Lumberland, for the purchase of a tandem diesel truck for the Highway Department. The grant was secured through the State Municipal Grant Program, funding for which was included in the 2015-2016 State Budget. Currently, there is an immediate need to replace a truck in the Highway Department’s fleet, and this grant will help the Town with that purchase.
“I’m pleases to have been able to secure this grant for the Town of Lumberland,” said Senator Bonacic. “Not only will this improve operations at the Highway Department, it will help ensure safe passage for residents using town roads, and will also save local taxpayers money.”
“I would like to thank Senator Bonacic for helping us secure this $50,000 grant for our Highway Department,” said Town of Lumberland Supervisor Jenny Mellan. “A new truck will ensure that our town roads will be kept clear of snow and safe for travel during the winter months, and for other road construction.”
