The Washington City Council approved a resolution endorsing an application for a T-Mobile Hometown Grant Program. T-Mobile offers a Hometown Grant program that helps small towns across the country invest in their local communities. T-Mobile has partnered with Main Street America and Smart Growth America on this grant program that provides up to $50,000 to 100 towns each year. The City agreed to apply for a $30,000 grant for the Central Park improvement project. This project would add wheelchair-accessible picnic tables to the park. The project would also renovate the two restroom stalls and make them family restrooms with changing tables, grab bars, new doors, and ADA fixtures to improve accessibility. It would also change the concrete that connects the restrooms to the sidewalk to remove any existing trip hazards.
