Flathead Industries nets Roundup for Safety grant for parking lot improvements

Flathead Electric Cooperative's Roundup for Safety Board approved a $12,000 grant for Flathead Industries' parking lot improvement project earlier this month.

The nonprofit, which boasts multiple locations across the Flathead Valley, lost parking space in Kalispell with the installation of the Parkline Trail, according to CEO Patrick Maddison, who requested the grant. 

"When the Parkline walking trail was installed in downtown Kalispell, Flathead Industries celebrated – but also lost most of its parking," he said in a statement. "The administration building and parking lot serves hundreds of people daily, from the public stopping by our clearance store to our clients with developmental disabilities to our administrative staff and employees from other locations in the valley who come to the main office for meetings and trainings."
