Consistent with the Town’s 2020 Comprehensive Plan GOAL #16: Continue to make La Plata a very walkable community (Page 16), The Town of La Plata was awarded two grants for the construction of the La Plata Bikeway running from Walter J. Mitchell Elementary School on Willow Lane, along MD 6 Charles Street, adjacent to the Agricopia subdivision, adjacent to MD 488, to Radio Station Road to Laurel Springs Regional Park.
The two grants:

• $1.44 million from the MDOT Transportation Alternatives Program
• $385,500 from the MDOT Bikeways Program.

MY ASK/CALL TO ARMS:

There will be a follow-up podcast/episode on the Town’s FY B25 budget process following our April 09, 2024, Town Council Regular Meeting - Budget discussion focusing on General Funds, and April 16, 2024, Town Council Regular Meeting - Budget discussion focusing on Enterprise Funds.

I ask for your participation and engagement in the budget process and other important Town issues. Your input is important, from the bottom-up for change.

This concludes this latest La Plata Town Council Ward 4 Update. I hope you find this podcast informative and useful.

Let me know what you think. I look forward to your questions and comments.
