PLYMPTON – The Plympton Community Preservation Committee (CPC) is currently accepting applications for fiscal year 2027 funding. The deadline for completed applications is October 15.
Recent projects include clapboard painting and window restoration and replacement at the “Old Town House”; repair and restoration of Town Green gazebo; creation of the 150-acre “Two Brooks Preserve” off Prospect Road; funding for improvements to the playground at the Dennett Elementary School; and the purchase and preservation of almost 300 acres known as Turkey Swamp.
The CPC takes very seriously its responsibility to administer Community Preservation Act funds and is thrilled to have the opportunity to serve and improve the town through acquisition and protection of open space, historical preservation, community housing and increased recreational opportunities.
New projects selected by the CPC for further consideration will be voted on for approval at the 2026 Annual Town Meeting.
Project guidelines and applications can be found on the Plympton town website at https://www.town.plympton. ma.us/community-preservationcommittee.
