(Lenox) The City of Lenox was awarded a CAT Grant in the amount of $62,000 to pave a three-quarters mile, eight-foot-wide trail. The project combines previously completed sections of an existing trail, totaling nearly three miles. It will connect the trail to the community, offering a more walkable and safe outdoor experience. The total project cost is $313,000.
The CAT program provides financial assistance to communities for the construction of recreational, cultural, educational or entertainment facilities that enhance the quality of life in Iowa. Award recommendations for these funds are made by the CAT Review Committee to the IEDA Board for approval.
