Glenarden accepts $100,000 Prince George’s County project charge grant for community programming
Summary
The Glenarden City Council authorized the city manager to accept a $100,000 FY26 project charge agreement from Prince George’s County Parks & Recreation to fund community, recreational and wellness programming including Glenarden Day and holiday events; the resolution requires regular status reports to council.
The Glenarden City Council voted to accept a fiscal‑year 2026 project charge agreement from the Prince George’s County Department of Parks and Recreation providing $100,000 in reimbursable funding for community programming.
The resolution lists eligible uses including Glenarden Day, an annual Thanksgiving luncheon, holiday events, cancer‑awareness activities, expungement day, and a community garden day. The city manager and treasurer were authorized to administer the contract requirements, submit required reports, request reimbursements for eligible expenses, and take necessary actions to implement the scope of services outlined in the contract.
During discussion council members clarified that the county program is described as a "project charge" not a traditional grant and confirmed that the grants manager need not be specifically included in implementation steps. The council asked that regular status updates on project charge funding be provided to ensure transparency over how the funds are spent.
The resolution takes effect immediately upon passage.
