It’s time to complete the planning of your park!

The Jenkintown Borough Planning Commission will be hosting the Cedar Street Park Planning Presentation and Informational Input Workshop on Tuesday, November 20th, 6:30 PM at Borough Hall.

Please join all the stakeholders whose valued input has shaped the Cedar Street Park planning this far in the process. All information that was contributed during the previous public planning workshops has been compiled, and was arranged to provide a general scope of work and possible proposed features of the park. The prior public planning workshops provided invaluable historical knowledge of the property, as well as several great ideas of potential features and important factors to be considered during the final planning sessions. The initial information was utilized to successfully submit the “2017 PECO Green Region” grant application. This grant award will in part fund this planning process and produce the civil engineering plans for submittal of grant funding for construction of the Cedar Street Park project. Once completed, Jenkintown Borough will be in possession of civil engineering plans for construction of Cedar Street Park.

There will be four additional planning sessions during the completion of the Planning/Engineering phase of this project. The schedule of these additional planning sessions is being finalized and will be provided to all stakeholders in the very near future. The intent is to complete the planning process and produce the final park plans prior to the end of March 2019 so that grant funding opportunities can be applied for to construct the Cedar Street Park as early as April 2019.

Thank you all for all you do to help make Jenkintown Borough the special place that it is!
