Funding will be used to help renovate existing city-owned community buildings and bring them to code per ADA requirements. Interior and exterior improvements will address ADA accessibility to facilities, improve environmental efficiency, improve security, and prepare the building for enhanced emergency use.
Strengthening infrastructure and improving our workforce remain my administration’s top priorities. Whether repairing roads, upgrading facilities, or expanding job training opportunities, these grants allow us to invest in the future of Missouri.
