(Albany, NY)- Senator John J. Bonacic (R/C/I-Mt. Hope) announced today that the Town of Masonville will be awarded a $75,000 grant for the purchase of a new snow plow truck for the town Highway Department. The grant was secured through the State Municipal Facilities Program, funding for which was appropriated in the 2016-2017 State Budget.
