Press Conference To Announce Bonding To Be Allocated To Two Projects In Cromwell


Tomorrow, Friday, July 29, state Senator Matt Lesser (D-Middletown) along with other local town officials will hold a press conference to highlight state bonding set to be approved early Friday morning. The state Bond Commission is set to approve funding, that Senator Lesser secured, to expand Pierson Park in Cromwell and to expand the sidewalks near Town Hall.

$1.5 million is set to be allocated to replace the old public works building, create a multi-use facility, and to expand Pierson Park. Pierson Park is home to the co-op Cromwell and Portland High School Football Team and this funding is critical to help provide the resources needed for the team.

Also, $750,000 is set to be allocated to expand the sidewalks for easier access to the Town Hall, town library, and senior center.
