The announcement last week by the Commerce Department’s Economic Development Administration of an award of a four point eight million dollar grant to the city of Moberly, allowing for water and wastewater infrastructure improvements to be made, was welcome news for Utilities Director Mary West-Calcagno.

West-Calcagno, outlines two of the water line replacement projects that will be done.

The Moberly City Council should formally approve some of the documentation for the grant next month.
