Pittsfield Community Preservation Act Public Hearing Monday
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The Community Preservation Committee will be holding a public hearing at 6 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 7 related to the use of Community Preservation Act (CPA) funds and the city of Pittsfield's priorities in relation to the Community Preservation Plan.
The hearing will be held in Room 203 on the second floor of City Hall, 70 Allen St.
Also, the committee announces that the project eligibility application process for a new year of CPA funding is open through Nov. 18. The committee will provide an overview of previous allocations of CPA funds and welcomes public participation to understand community priorities as it begins a new year of soliciting potential projects for funding.
Eligibility project applications are due by 3 p.m. on Nov. 18. The application process involves two steps:
• The first is a determination of whether a project is eligible for CPA funds under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 44B. A digital version of the application for this first step is available through the Community Preservation Committee webpage: https://www.cityofpittsfield.org/departments/community_preservation_committee/index.php
• Upon confirmed eligibility, projects will then be invited to submit applications for funding in early 2023.
A link to the Community Preservation Plan and eligibility application is available on the Community Preservation Committee page: https://www.cityofpittsfield.org/departments/community_preservation_committee/index.php.
