Westchester Loses $7.4 M in HUD Grants

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. ━ Westchester has lost its prolonged tug-of-war with the federal government over $7.4 million in federal grants that fund programs for the needy.

The decision was made by a panel of judges for the U.S. Court of Appeals and will allow the Department of Housing and Urban Development to reallocate those funds to a community outside of Westchester, which it must do before Sept. 30, the end of the federal fiscal year. If the money is not reallocated by then, it would be sent back to the U.S. Treasury. Cilck on the icon above for FULL STORY.
