City assumes management of completed 4-mile Downtown Greenway; seeks public support for maintenance endowment
Summary
After completing the 4-mile Downtown Greenway, Greensboro City said management and oversight have transitioned from Action Greensboro to the city, which will now handle operations, maintenance and programming and encouraged community contributions to a maintenance endowment.
Greensboro City announced that management and oversight of the newly completed 4-mile Downtown Greenway loop have transferred from Action Greensboro to city leadership now that the capital project is complete, the weekly flash briefing said.
The Moderator said day-to-day management, operations, maintenance, programming and future planning efforts will continue under the city. While the construction of the loop is complete, the Moderator said activation, maintenance and care will be an ongoing effort and invited community support. Listeners were given a link to downtownGreenway.org/donate to contribute toward free programming or a maintenance endowment; the briefing did not specify fundraising targets or a budget for maintenance.
The city framed the transfer as a routine next step following project completion; no schedule for staffing changes or a detailed operations plan was provided in the briefing.
