The Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation The Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation provides funding for Arts, Education, Environment and Informed Communities initiatives that are innovative and promote collaboration and community-driven decision making. Recipients may include nonprofit, community, government, and business leaders. http://www.grdodge.org/what-we-fund/ Other Funding Sources Impact Fees Regulated by subdivision polices, impact fees require residential, industrial and commercial development project leaders to provide sites, improvements, and/or funds to support public amenities such as open space and trails. Impact fees may be allocated to a particular trail or greenway from land development projects if the fund is a dedicated set-aside account established to help develop a county- or municipality-wide system of trails or pedestrian/bicycle infrastructure facilities. County and Municipal Capital Programs All New Jersey counties and many New Jersey municipalities have an Open Space Trust Fund, which is a dedicated program supporting open space land acquisition. The trust funds are established by ballot measure. Depending on the fund parameters, other development projects can be eligible including trails, historical preservation, and farmland protection. https://tpl.quickbase.com/db/bbqna2qct?a=dbpage&pageID=8 County and Municipal Open Space Trust Funds In the case where alternative funds are not available but there is community consensus and political will to move forward with a project, county and municipal capital programs should be considered. Local budgets may have the ability to support some projects, especially if other state and federal programs provide budget relief in other areas. 136 WEST ORANGE TOWNSHIP: VISION ZERO ACTION PLAN
