The Fall River Park Board voted Wednesday to move forward with a single Community Preservation Committee application seeking $300,000 to resurface the courts at Griffin Park, prioritizing that one project over several other resurfacing requests.

Parks staff described a long list of repair needs across parks, including Maplewood and pathways in Kennedy Park, but recommended focusing on Griffin Park to increase the chances of receiving CPC funding. Commissioners agreed and authorized parks staff to prepare the CPC application and a supporting letter from the board.

The board noted Kennedy Park’s Olmsted designation would add complexity and historic review requirements for that site, which supported the decision to submit a single, prioritized application this year and revisit other projects in future cycles.
