On Friday, Vallee said Franklin was awarded $22,841 and Medway received $10,346.
"In tight budget years (the state) is generally cutting programs, but this particular program went up" he said Monday. "It's indicative we're satisfied with the way grants are being utilized."
Each town was granted $7 per senior citizen. Vallee said last year, towns were only allotted $6.50 per senior.
