The M-NCPPC headquarters are located at 2425 Reedie Dr. in Wheaton.
The CIP is prepared every two years to cover a six-year cycle and funds new parks and park amenities, environmental restoration, and rehabilitation projects that increase the life of assets.
FY25-30 Capital Improvement Program priorities may include:
- Implementing the updated Wheaton Regional Park Master Plan and rehabilitating aging facilities.
- Constructing the Lyttonsville Neighborhood Green, a new park along the new Capital Crescent Trail to Silver Spring in Lyttonsville that includes the Talbot Street Bridge memorial.
- Increased funding for electrification and solar power generation.
- Increased funding to rehabilitate and modernize aging infrastructure and park amenities.
- Increased funding to restore Stream Valley Parks degraded by untreated impervious areas draining onto parkland.
- Increased Vision Zero funding to provide safer trail intersections and traffic calming along parkways, specifically focusing on Matthew Henson Trail, Sligo Creek Trail and connections to Wheaton Regional Park. The funding also will be used as matching funds for Federal Safe Streets for All (SS4A) and RAISE grants.
- Increased funding to renovate existing trails and improve community connections, specifically focusing on Sligo Creek Trail and Northwest Branch Trail. The funding also will be used as matching funds for Federal Safe Streets for All (SS4A) and RAISE grants.
