The U.S. Department of Agriculture awarded a $250,000 grant to the Upper Fruitland, New Mexico, chapter of the Navajo Nation for a new chapter house.
The money will fund a three-phase project to replace the old chapter house, which was built in 1966 and is posing a health and safety hazard. Plans include a new chapter house, to be completed by 2008 or 2009, and a new senior center.
The grant was awarded through the USDA's Rural Development Program.
