Re: Memorandum of Understanding for FY23CPA Grant Extension Request
Dear Ms. Cameron,
This memorandum of understanding has been prepared to request a Grant Term extension of Somerville
Community Preservation Act (CPA) Grant #240064, amounting to $250,000, from its current date of May
31, 2026 to a new date of December 31, 2027. The reason for this request is that the final task for which
the grant funds were awarded, Construction Administration, is expected to be completed in a timeframe
consistent with project construction as outlined in bid documents released by the City in early February.
If you have any questions regarding the request included in this memorandum, please do not hesitate to
contact our Greenways Program Senior Manager, Karl Alexander, at [email removed].
We are delighted the City will be advancing this important project through the construction phase, and
we look forward to celebrating its opening to the Somerville community.
Sincerely,
Patrick Herron, Executive Director
