The West Concord Advisory Committee is gearing up to support a significant community improvement project at the Juro property, as discussed in their recent meeting on November 6, 2024. The committee is considering writing a letter of support for a $90,000 funding request from the Community Preservation Committee (CPC) aimed at enhancing public access to Waters Pond.

The proposed funding will not be used for immediate construction but rather to hire a consultant who will analyze the feasibility of creating a boat dock or launch that can adapt to varying water levels. Additionally, the project includes plans for a playground, pathways, and landscaping improvements. This initial phase is crucial for determining the costs and logistics of future enhancements to the park.

Committee members expressed their support for the project, emphasizing the importance of demonstrating community backing to the CPC. The letter of support could range from a brief endorsement to a more detailed commentary, depending on the committee's preference. The goal is to show a collective interest in the project, which is seen as a valuable addition to the community.

As the committee prepares to finalize their letter, the anticipated improvements at the Juro property could significantly enhance recreational opportunities and access to the natural beauty of Waters Pond, marking a positive step forward for West Concord.
