Township staff says it applied for about $134,000 in greenways funds to cover DCNR match
Summary
Engineer Jones told the meeting staff submitted a greenways grant application (referred to as the 'DCD greenways program') seeking about $134,000 to cover the remaining match for DCNR funding to support community park trails.
Engineer Jones reported that township staff had submitted a grant application to the 'DCD greenways program' to cover the match required for DCNR funding for community park trails. "We got the grant submitted from the DCD greenways program for the community park trails. This grant was to cover the match that was left for DCNR. It was about $134,000 was our ask for that," Engineer Jones said.
The engineer presented the amount as the township's request to fill the remaining local match obligation for the DCNR-related project; the transcript includes both the term "DCD greenways program" and a reference to DCNR in the same explanation. The board did not take a formal vote on the grant at the meeting: the discussion was an informational update on staff activity and funding-seeking for the community park trails.
No funding source breakdown or matching schedule was detailed in the transcript; the engineer identified the $134,000 figure as the township's request but did not specify grant terms or award status. The board did not assign follow-up tasks or set a decision deadline in the meeting record.
