Sudbury Gets $534,729 Match for Community Preservation

The Community Preservation Fund was granted a match from the state.

Sudbury, MA -- The Sudbury Community Preservation Committee (CPC) announced that it has received a 32 percent match from the state for funds raised under the Community Preservation Act (CPA). Based upon Sudbury’s FY15 CPA surcharge revenue of $1,668,843, the state match for the current year comes to $534,729.

These funds are part of the roughly $36 million that the Massachusetts Department of Revenue distributed to 156 eligible communities participating in the CPA.

Although collections for CPA at the Registries of Deeds have increased slightly over the past year, this year’s distribution included an additional $10 million in state budget surplus funding, said the announcement.
