The funding will be used for the purchase of 11.13 acres of undeveloped land in South Framingham for resource protection, stormwater management, and passive outdoor recreation. The parcel, crossed by Beaverdam Brook, is predominantly wetlands and includes 3 to 4 acres of wooded upland and trails. It is part of a larger tract that includes land in Sherborn and Ashland. The site will also offer passive outdoor recreation with its walking trails and potential connections to current and future off-site trails in and beyond the City, thus offering a valuable passive recreation opportunity to nearby economic justice neighborhoods and the larger community.
