State Grant Means Cleaner School Buses in Arlington District
Arlington Citizen Journal
Twelve Arlington buses were crushed into hunks of metal and chipped paint all in the name of the environment this fall. The Arlington school district was one of four entities to receive state funding to replace those diesel-powered buses with alternative fuel or hybrid ones. After officials were notified that Arlington was the only school district in North Texas to receive a $930,000 grant, they bought 24 propane buses with 2009 bond money.
