Welcome
The Town of Dedham Open Space and Recreation Committee is tasked with drafting the 2010 Plan. This 7 year plan continues the ongoing efforts by the Town of Dedham to enhance and protect its natural areas and to provide and maintain accessible parks and recreational areas for the enjoyment of its residents and visitors.
An Open Space and Recreation Plan, valid for 7 years, is a requirement for participation in grant programs offered by the Massachusetts Division of Conservation Services (DCS), including:
- PARC, Parkland Acquisitions and Renovations for Communities (formerly Urban Self Help)
- LAND, Local Acquisitions for Natural Diversity (formerly Self Help)
- Massachusetts Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) programs.
To find out more about the plan, please review the planning documents and meeting notes and check out our calendar of events.
