WE
WON!!!
On
January 26, 2010 the people of Madison voted to purchase
the Griswold Airport property, and to preserve it
forever. The vote tally was 3275 to 2444.
This is an exciting day for Madison, which soon will have a
majestic new coastal park. Many, many thanks to
the hundreds of people who participated in the fight to save
this land over the past 10 years.
Private fundraising to raise $1.7 million of the
purchase price is ongoing, and must be successful
for the Trust for Public Land to close on the property
on April 1, 2010. Please check this space again
soon for updates.
