Town of Kensington and Chevy Chase View obtain $100K in Grant Funding for Pedestrian Safety

Congratulations to the Town of Kensington and our neighbor to the south, Chevy Chase View on successfully obtaining $100K in grant funding for pedestrian safety!

The grant comes from the Safe Routes to Schools program which is federally funded and administered by each State. This is a great example of local, state and federal governments working together to improve our quality of life and make our neighborhoods safer for kids.

Kudos to Mayor Fosselman for collaborating with our neighboring jurisdiction to pursue this grant. Former Town employee Claudia Donnelly was instrumental in putting together the grant application.

This is a first for Kensington.
