“Creating a centerpiece for the area brings pride to a community, interest from outside developers and a safe place for families to come together."

KINLOCH, Mo. — St. Louis County has applied for two federal grants that, if approved, would bring in funds to revitalize Kinloch Park into a community centerpiece.

Of that funding, $250,000 would come from the Recreation Trails Program. At last week's meeting, the St. Louis County Council passed a resolution in support of the County Parks Foundation's application for the grant. The county also applied for a $500,000 federal grant that would be matched by local funds if awarded, according to a Monday news release from the office of St. Louis County Executive Sam Page.
