Five parks each receive $50,000 for park restoration, beautification or enhancement needs and a new Bobcat zero-turn mower

WEST FARGO, N.D.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Bobcat Company, a global compact equipment, innovation and worksite solutions brand, has extended five grants, each worth $50,000, to parks across the nation as part of its partnership with the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA).

In addition to the grant offering, every park and recreation department that applied for the grant—regardless of receiving the grant or not—will receive a new Bobcat zero-turn mower to help them accomplish more for their community spaces.

The recipients of the $50,000 grants include City of Stonecrest in Stonecrest, Ga.; Davidson County Parks and Recreation in Lexington, N.C.; City of Buffalo Parks in Buffalo, N.Y.; San Antonio River Authority in San Antonio, Texas; and City of Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation in Auburn, Wash.

“Our commitment to positively impact communities is ingrained in all of us at Bobcat, and we are humbled to give back to these deserving communities in support of this mission,” said Mike Ballweber, president, Doosan Bobcat North America. “By supporting sustainability efforts today, we can offer a better tomorrow to the generations to come.”

Through Bobcat and NRPA’s shared commitment to creating vibrant and sustainable community park and recreation areas, the grant dollars will support various restoration, sustainability, beautification or enhancement activities at these sites.

The grant recipients’ plans include:

• City of Stonecrest in Stonecrest, Ga.: The City of Stonecrest, located east of Atlanta, plans to develop a walking trail at Everett Park. The new trail aims to encourage community residents to engage with the outdoors and attend the park and recreation department’s programs which include forest therapy programs, bird watching walks, summer camps, fishing and camping opportunities. The local park and recreation team will utilize the grant dollars, plus Bobcat equipment for forest mulching, grading and compacting to support development of this new ADA-compliant trail.
• Davidson County Parks and Recreation in Lexington, N.C.: A pollinator garden and bog garden is being developed at a newly created park called Yadkin River Park. The project is being led by the Davidson County Parks and Recreation Department in collaboration with the master gardeners of Davidson County, Catawba College Department of Environment and Sustainability, North Carolina state agencies, Town of Spencer and Friends of Rowan County. The gardens will demonstrate the resilience of the native bog plants in North Carolina, and it will also protect the surrounding community from adverse effects like water pollution and flooding. Educational signage will be on display for the public and local educators to use these spaces to teach children as they play at the nearby playgrounds. The agencies will work together to plant, mulch, maintain and teach people how these plants help the environment.
• City of Buffalo in Buffalo, N.Y.: The City of Buffalo Parks and Buffalo Niagara River Land Trust are partnering on a 22-acre conservation easement known as Houghton Park. What was once a dumping ground of large broken concrete slabs, bricks and stones, will become an open nature conservation area in a dense urban neighborhood overlooking the Buffalo River. The project team will leverage compact equipment from Bobcat to remove the heavy construction debris, while offering a light footprint on the sensitive landscape. The conservation area will reconstruct pedestrian trails and create access points from the area neighborhoods.
• San Antonio River Authority in San Antonio, Texas: The San Antonio River Authority plans to develop new trails, create two bioswales and plant native species at its 351-acre Trueheart Ranch Park which fronts the San Antonio River. These park initiatives aim to make the park more resistant to climate outcomes. After the completion of this project, the park plans to open these areas to the public and offer various programming opportunities such as fishing clinics, tent building and nature hikes. The team will utilize Bobcat equipment for use in constructing the trails.
• City of Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation in Auburn, Wash.: Located south of Seattle, the City of Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation will create a more inclusive environment for the community by creating new ADA-accessible gravel pathways at Auburndale Park. The project will reinvigorate two existing pathways to remove the outdated asphalt and replace it with crushed gravel. To complete the project, the team will use Bobcat equipment to demo the asphalt, then to install the gravel paths to proper grade.

“We are so excited to help create more sustainable and resilient communities by extending grants to these deserving communities,” said Ayanna Williams, NRPA director of community and environmental resilience. “Park and recreation professionals are champions in addressing our most pressing environmental challenges and we are grateful to Bobcat for their support to improve, preserve and beautify these spaces.”

Each park will begin its project this summer with varying stages of completion over the next several months.

CONCORD, Ontario–(BUSINESS WIRE)–It’s becoming more important every day, and this year’s deep dive into Canada’s sustainable property technology industry outlines where value meets values in the 2023 Sustainable Protech Canada Report.

This year’s Report, contains a comprehensive list of Canadian Sustainable Proptech startups, a Market Map of Canada’s Sustainable Proptech ecosystem, survey insights, analysis of current Proptech trends and interviews with Jon Love from Kingsett Capital, Jon Ramscar from CBRE, and Sanders Lazier from Carbonhound, and other leading industry experts. There’s even an overview of the growing array of products from the Canadian banks who lend to companies that take sustainable mandates seriously and integrate them into their building projects.

The push to decarbonize buildings continues. Governments around the world are enacting regulations to both incentivize buildings to become more efficient and penalize those that don’t comply. That means there are significant opportunities for innovators who can create new technology, products and services for the industry.

Sustainable Proptech is a Canadian company created as a central hub to help the industry navigate through the fast and ever-changing technology landscape and make an important contribution to ESG and Real Estate in Canada.

Today’s launch event also introduced some of Canada’s most exciting technologies, and interviews with industry leaders about trends that are driving sustainable innovation in the country.

Venturon, Founder/Managing Partner and Sustainable Proptech Co-Founder, Deena Pantalone, said, “It’s in the air everywhere these days. And I don’t just mean smoke from wildfires. People are talking about climate, health and sustainability. We know that time isn’t on our side. That’s why our clear mission is to accelerate the achievement of sustainability goals through bridging the worlds of technology and real estate with sustainability experts, tech entrepreneurs, investors, and fresh thinkers.”

Venturon, Principal/Director of Operations and Sustainable Proptech Co-Founder Joanna Creed, adds, “New innovations come when innovators and thought leaders interact and share ideas.

This Report brings together a wealth of information, with usable data and important connections designed to help push the boundaries of Sustainable Proptech here in Canada.

A final word from Deena Pantalone, “Global Real Estate Leaders are pivoting rapidly towards adoption of innovation as we move towards our 2030 Netzero goals. Change is essential. It can also be very profitable for those who lead the way.”
