Acton Community Dog Park is funded through the generosity of many:
- The Stanton Foundation, through its Canine Welfare programs, has provided a $25K grant to cover design costs, and has also committed an additional $225K to park construction.
- A Stanton Foundation-required $25K Town construction match was awarded at Acton's 2021 Annual Town Meeting.
- Residents have contributed close to $15K through fundraising efforts organized by the Friends of Acton Community Dog Park, with more fundraisers to follow. Be sure to watch this site or our Facebook page for updates.
- The "Friends" will be seeking donations of goods and materials, such as benches, water stations, groundskeeping tools, and the like as park construction commences.
- The Acton Dog Park Committee has submitted a proposal for $100K in Community Preservation Act funds. This proposal has been recommended by the Community Preservation Committee, the Select Board, and the Finance Committee. Now we need your YES vote on Article 9K at Acton Town Meeting, May 6 & 7, 2024.
