Rep. Donna Scheuren announced a grant of $61,700 awarded to Upper Pottsgrove Township for improvements at Hollenbach Park. The funding is part of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources’ Community Conservation Partnerships Program (CCPP).
This new grant adds to a previous $200,000 from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) allocated earlier this year. The project is currently in the engineering phase and plans include a 1-mile ADA-accessible loop trail, new paved ADA-accessible parking spaces, project acknowledgment signs, and related amenities for visitors. Construction is expected to begin in 2025.
“I am so pleased to see this grant funding be awarded to Upper Pottsgrove for the improvement of Hollenbach Park,” said Scheuren. “Keeping our public and open spaces safe for all members of the community is critical. I know these improvements will help update Hollenbach Park so it can remain a great place to enjoy the outdoors in the 147th District!”
The DCNR’s Community Conservation Partnerships Program grants support various projects such as planning, acquisition, development of public parks, recreation areas, trails, river conservation and access, conservation of open space, and community forestry.
