Tallassee Mayor Johnny Hammock announced late last week the City of Tallassee has been awarded a $250,000 Community Development Block Grant through the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA). The grant has a 10% match, which means the city will have a total of $275,000 to fund the demolition of dilapidated structures throughout the city.
"When I ran for mayor, beautification was a large part of my platform and this will help with that," Hammock said.
