HUGE NEWS for Mill River Park & Stamford!

October 3, 2024

HUGE news for Stamford! I’m proud to announce that we’ve secured $7.6M in funding for Mill River Park in the 145th District. The “Community Commons” project will bring incredible improvements like a dog park, play areas, year-round restrooms, event spaces, and safer pedestrian access along Washington Blvd.

Leading this effort means so much to me because Mill River Park is a vital part of our community, connecting families, businesses, and neighborhoods. This is a HUGE win for Stamford’s future, and I’m grateful to have worked collaboratively with our Stamford delegation, and to the CIF board, Speaker Ritter, Majority Leader Rojas, Governor Ned Lamont, Mayor Caroline Simmons, and Mill River Park Collaborative for their partnership. 

This project isn’t just about enhancing the park - it’s about bringing our community together in new and exciting ways. I’m excited for what’s to come!

Thrilled to share with you that Stamford's Mill River Park Collaborative will be receiving $7.6 million in CIF funds!
