The funds are <br />paid into accounts for 4 geographic districts, and these funds must be expended in that <br />district for parkland acquisition or facilities to serve the residents in the district. <br />It is anticipated that this funding source would in part help to pay for the acquisition of <br />lands for the future North-Central, Southwest Orange and Eno Township parks, as well as <br />helping to pay for facilities at existing parks such as Efland-Cheeks, Fairview, or other <br />parks. <br />
