The Apache County Board of Supervisors will funnel some $225,000 in federal grant money into two key projects in the unincorporated community of Concho, including a new well and a community center.
Any leftover money will help the Springerville Fire Department buy air packs so firefighters can work in smoke-filled buildings, according to the priority listing approved by the board of supervisors earlier this month.
That apparently leaves the Round Valley Boys and Girls Clubs out in the cold, without enough leftover federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to cover the $153,000 request for an upgraded kitchen for use by the after-school organizations.
