The
following list represents grants acquired by the city of Apalachicola from
Federal, State, and local agencies to fund projects within the city that totals
more than $7.2 million.
Relentlessly
in pursuit of grant opportunities to fund all sorts of projects ranging from
the extension of sewer services, to the enhancement of recreational
opportunities for children. Apalachicola
city officials have sought and successfully acquired the listed grants for specific projects
designed to create and sustain jobs and to enhance the overall quality of life
and experiences of all those who live, work and visit Apalachicola.
By
design, grants are specific in nature, and the recipient of such can only use them
for the intended purpose outlined in the grant application and in its subsequent
award.
