$39K in gaming revenue sought to pay for Apache Junction senior transportation
A $39,194 grant from Gila River Indian Community gaming revenue is being sought to pay for senior-citizen transportation in Apache Junction.
The Apache Junction City Council recently approved a resolution approving the submittal of an application from the municipality for a grant. The initial application was filed in March, Heather Patel, the city’s grants administrator, said in a memo to the council.
“We submitted an application to the Gila River Indian Community for support of our senior transportation program and we were notified that we move on to the next step in the process, and in order to qualify, we have to get a resolution from the City Council approving us to move forward with an application,” she said at the Sept. 3 council meeting.
