Great news!!

Santa Monica City Council has just accepted $10.5 million in state and county funding for the future Great Park!

The nearly $500k Measure A grant helps move the project from planning toward implementation, while the $ten million Proposition 4 award recognizes the Great Park's potential to restore habitat, improve stormwater management, address extreme heat, expand access to nature, and create lasting environmental and public health benefits.

Perhaps most importantly, these awards help position Santa Monica for future investment and demonstrate that state and regional partners see the value and promise of this project. As these funds are put to work, they will help turn years of planning and community engagement into visible progress on the ground. That progress will help build public confidence that the community's vision for a Great Park is becoming a reality.

Of course we'll have refreshments for our volunteers. Be ready to get dirty.
