Cheltenham Township is hosting a community meeting to discuss the Robinson Park Restoration Project on Tuesday, June 11 from 6:30pm-8:00pm at Curtis Arboretum in Wyncote.

The meeting will provide information and feedback about the project and the preliminary design concept.

From the township’s announcement:

The Robinson Park Restoration Project will improve water quality, mitigate flooding, and enhance native habitat by converting 3+ acres from turf grass and invasive plant species to native vegetation for use by songbirds and pollinators, daylighting a portion of buried stream from a confined concrete channel, and installing a forested riparian buffer with water quality features. The project will promote stormwater infiltration and evapotranspiration and will filter runoff to prevent up to 13 tons of sediment annually from discharging to the Tookany Creek and downstream Delaware Bay.

On Tuesday, June 25, the township will host a public visioning and programming workshop ahead of the design phase for the La Mott Community Center renovations.

The meeting will be held from 6:00pm to 7:30pm at the La Mott Community Center, 7420 Sycamore Avenue.

The Board of Commissioners will meet on Wednesday, June 26 for their monthly regular meeting.
