Three Rivers backs MDNR Passport grant for Elbert Foster Park improvements
Summary
The City Commission unanimously approved a resolution supporting a Michigan Department of Natural Resources Passport grant application to fund 2026 improvements at Elbert Foster Park.
The Three Rivers City Commission on March 3 unanimously approved a resolution supporting a Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) Passport grant application to fund improvements at Elbert Foster Park.
At-Large Commissioner Torrey Brown moved to approve the resolution, and Second District Commissioner Steven Haigh seconded. The motion carried unanimously. The resolution signals the city's intent to pursue MDNR funding to support park upgrades in 2026.
The approval came during the business portion of the meeting after the Planning Commission annual progress update. Commissioners did not detail the specific scope or dollar amount for the proposed improvements during the recorded motion. The resolution authorizes city staff to submit the passport grant application and indicates local support for the project.
The next step is application submission to the MDNR; the commission did not set a separate timeline for design or construction in the recorded discussion.
