$33,000 investment to help Slater better maintain city roads and property

SLATER, Mo. (KMIZ)

The USDA is investing $33,437 to modernize maintenance equipment for the city of Slater.

“Missouri’s rural residents deserve modern infrastructure, equipment, and facilities in the communities they call home,” said Trump Administration Official State Director Case. “Under the leadership of President Trump and Agriculture Secretary Perdue, USDA has been working tirelessly to be a strong partner to rural Missouri communities, like Slater, in building stronger and healthier communities, because we know when rural America thrives, all of America thrives.”

The city of Slater will use the Community Facilities Grant to replace a 42-year-old truck and purchase a dump bed package and flatbed equipment trailer.

Officials say the new truck will allow the city to better maintain roads and property for Slater citizens.
