From a TBD article about Silver Spring Park in Fenton Village
To make up for the remaining public space requirement, developers will give $152,728 to Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning to pay for a bike station at Gene Lynch Urban Park, which is adjacent to the Silver Spring Transit Center.
The planning document that is linked in the TBD article indicates the $152K will be for developing architectural plans for the bike station. No doubt the entire project including construction will cost much more. The source of the remaining funding is not identified in the article, and may not be secured yet.
Still, this is very good news - it shows a commitment to the project from Mont. Co.
