Delaware County has established the Greenway Grant Program to promote conservation, recreation, and the enhancement of green spaces throughout the county. This program is designed to assist local municipalities and non-profit organizations in developing and maintaining greenway corridors, parks, and trails that serve both the environment and the community. By investing in the creation and improvement of these spaces, the program enriches resident's quality of life.
Funded projects will establish or restore essential green areas, offering opportunities for outdoor activities and promoting conservation efforts. Additionally, improvements to trails and pathways will encourage walking, biking, and outdoor recreation, contributing to healthier lifestyles.
The Program includes four (4) broad funding categories:
• CONSERVE open space and natural features
• ENHANCE their environmental and recreational uses
• CONNECT communities, cultural/historic resources, and natural features
• PLANNING & DESIGN future amenities in a prioritized, strategic fashion
Delaware County’s popular Delco Green Ways Grant Program is an excellent program around to help fund and complete your municipality’s open space projects. It provides an opportunity to do something transformative for your community's green spaces, trails, parks and people.
