Mason receives DRA grant

The town of Mason has received nearly $76,000 from the Delta Regional Authority (DRA) as part of $1.8 million awarded to 16 communities through the Strategic Planning Program. The program provides communities within the DRA region with the necessary resources to develop strategies that maximize opportunities in public infrastructure, workforce development, and small business development and entrepreneurship. Mason will use the funds to develop a preliminary engineering report for the second phase of its sewer system rehabilitation project, which will prioritize project needs and support residential growth, business recruitment and job creation.
