Residents and visitors to downtown Farmersville may notice some new and improved changes south of the square.
Some of the additions include safer sidewalks for pedestrians in the area thanks to a Texas Community Development Fund grant awarded last year.
Heritage Museum Board President Misty Wiebold said the city’s grant process began several years ago.
