Upper Allen awarded PA DCNR Grant

On December 14th, Upper Allen Township was awarded a $125,000 grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) for improvements to the Winding Hills Park West recreational facilities. Thanks to DCNR, the Township will be able to improve the overall usability of the park by adding over 3,500 linear feet of walking paths, restrooms and a concession stand. It is planned that construction of the Park improvements will begin by the summer of 2012.

Upper Allen Township acquired Winding Hills Park West in 2002 from the developer of Winding Hills Housing Development. Over the past years the park has been primarily used by walkers and youth soccer leagues.

DCNR is the primary source of state support for Pennsylvania recreation, parks, and conservation initiatives. Grant funding from DCNR assists hundreds of communities and organizations across Pennsylvania to plan, acquire, and develop recreation and park facilities, create trails, and conserve open space.

Funding for the grants comes from the Keystone Recreation, Park and Conservation Fund (Key 93), the Environmental Stewardship Fund (Growing Greener 1), and federal funding sources.
