CITY OF BLUE GRASS RECEIVES GRANT

FROM THE “REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY”

The City of Blue Grass, during the spring 2021 grant cycle, was awarded a grant in the amount of $17,933.00 from the Regional Development Authority to replace the existing ball diamond fence and backstop.  Sampson Fence LTD was awarded the project totaling $22,325.00 with the City paying the difference.  Sampson Fence LTD then donated the monies from the recycled materials to the Park Board for future projects.   

Since the start of the project, Sampson Fence LTD built and donated a concession stand to help support the leagues and their teams.  We would also like to recognize the City staff, Park Board and the Bi-State Regional Commission for the writing of the grant.  Great job!

Together, the City and its Park Board are very grateful to both the Regional Development Authority and Sampson Fence LTD, as without their support, projects of such would not be feasible. 

Thank you.
