Exeter board to send letter of support for $591,713 Crystal Lake restoration grant
Summary
The board agreed to sign a letter supporting Mount Penn Borough Municipal Authority's $591,713 Crystal Lake Restoration Project grant application to DCED, explicitly noting the district will not contribute funds but will provide a letter of support.
The Exeter Township School Board approved sending a letter of support to the Mount Penn Borough Municipal Authority for the Crystal Lake Restoration Project (Carsonia Lake Park Phase 3), an estimated $591,713 restoration effort that would include shoreline stabilization, an accessible lake and pollinator trail, and an educational viewing platform.
Timothy Morgan, the township/borough liaison, read the proposed letter of support which asked the authority to seek funding through the Department of Community and Economic Development's Local Share Account (LSA) statewide grant program. Morgan explained the approval was limited to endorsing the grant application and did not commit Exeter Township School District funds to the project.
The board agreed to sign and transmit the letter with no objections recorded in the meeting audio.
Next steps: the district will sign and send the letter of support; the Mount Penn Borough Municipal Authority will pursue DCED LSA grant funding per the application timeline.
