City Park's massive $115 million master plan is opening wallets.

Since adopting a plan in March to rehabilitate the park by 2018, the park has raised $8.3 million, including $1.3 million from private donors and $7 million from federal, state and city contributions.

"When you think that pretty much that money's been raised in a year, in less than a year, really, you have to be pretty pleased," said City Park CEO Bob Becker. "Like anything, some of that money we've been working on a long time. And some of the money has come to fruition this year. And before the end of the year, we expect to raise some more money as well.

"We have gotten off to a very promising start in our plan."
