Official Text

To the Honorable Board:

 

I respectfully request that you authorize the dedication to recreational use in perpetuity pursuant to G.L.c45, s. 14, the parcel of land known as 15-25 Cross Street, as one of the conditions of a $500,000 Parkland Acquisitions and Renovations for Communities (PARC) grant recently awarded to the City by the Division of Conservation Services. A boundary map is attached for your information.

 

Your Honorable Board has approved the request to appropriate Bond funds totaling $781,250 for the parks construction (Docket No 192565) and accepted the $500,000 PARC grant (Docket No 192566) for a total city investment of $281,250.

 

My staff will be available to answer any questions you may have.

 

Thank you for your consideration.

 

Respectfully submitted,

 

Joseph A. Curtatone

Mayor
