Applications and instructions to apply for a Community Preservation Act grant can be found on the city of Springfield's website.

Deadline to apply is March 30, 2023

There is a new opportunity to obtain funding for projects to preserve history, create more recreational space, or build community housing in Springfield, Massachusetts.

The Springfield Community Preservation Committee has announced the 2023 CPA grant cycle is now open.

A remote workshop is being held by the committee on Tuesday February 7 at 6 p.m. to explain the application process.

WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke with CPA committee chairman Bob McCarroll.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
