Fulton Homes donates $3 million to Town of Queen Creek
for library, parks, transportation

The Town of Queen Creek recently received a $3 million donation from Fulton Homes
for design and construction of the new Queen Creek Library children’s area, parks development,
and transportation improvements within the Town.
The Fulton’s $3 million contribution is designated to be used in the following ways:
- $1 million towards the design and construction of future Town park facilities.
- $1 million towards the Town’s five-year Transportation Improvement Program.
- $1 million towards the new Queen Creek library children’s area. In recognition for
this contribution, the Town will name the children’s area of the library the “Mary Lou
Fulton Children’s Center”.
This additional funding for the new library allows the Town to enrich the interior design of
the children’s area by including exciting thematic elements. Based on planning meetings with
the Town’s Youth Commission and other youth who frequently use the library, the Town’s
design team came up with a “Four Seasons of Nature” concept that incorporates colorful
landscapes of autumn trees, ice-capped mountains, spring flowers and a relaxing summer
beach. These lovely images will serve as a vibrant backdrop for children’s programming in the
Mary Lou Fulton Children’s Center.
”Building a quality community requires so much input from so many stakeholders,” states
Queen Creek Mayor Art Sanders. “In Queen Creek, we try hard to maximize public resources to
the benefit of all our residents, and we are delighted about the partnership we have melded with
Fulton Homes for our parks development program, our new library and also our streets
network.”
