PENNIES FOR PARKS

What is “Pennies for Parks”?

Pennies for Parks was established as a way to raise money for park development.  All residents have the opportunity to “round” up their monthly utility bill to help beautify our city.

How does the program work?

The optional program would round your monthly utility bill to the next whole dollar.  For example, if your utility bill is $41.75 it would be rounded up to $42.00, the .25 cents would be donated to the parks fund to be used towards the beautification of the parks.

If the average per year contributes was $7.20 with 500 households participating, it would generate $3,600 to be used towards the purchase of new play sets, park benches and so much more!!
