East Brunswick recreation-area plans win council approval

TIMES RECORD • June 4, 2025

The Brunswick Town Council has OK’d a “menu” of suggested plans for a large swath of town property in East Brunswick, setting the stage for future recreation projects like trails, parking lots, a playground and a swimming area. Councilors unanimously approved the plans Monday night for the 230-acre area, which consists of two adjacent parcels: the Captain William A. Fitzgerald Conservation and Recreation Area, and the former Maine Gravel Services property. The improvements total more than $12.6 million. According to the plan, the bulk of the funding will likely come from state grants.
