Current as of January 01, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

Sixty-nine percent of the moneys available for grant purposes in any one fiscal year shall be available only for block grants to cities, counties, and districts in urbanized areas for the acquisition or development of, or for special major maintenance of, recreational lands and facilities, or for innovative recreation programs, and shall be apportioned on the basis of population in the following manner:

(a) Sixty percent of the moneys shall be allocated to cities and to districts in urbanized areas in the proportion that the population of the jurisdiction bears to the population of all cities and districts in urbanized areas throughout the state. Recognizing that the boundaries of cities and of districts may overlap, only the population of the jurisdiction which will actually provide and administer the recreational service contemplated shall be counted in the area of overlapping jurisdiction. The population of districts within urbanized areas shall be certified by the board of supervisors of each county.

(b) Forty percent of the moneys shall be allocated to urbanized counties and to regional park districts in urbanized areas in the proportion that the total population of the jurisdiction bears to the total population of all urbanized counties and regional park districts in urbanized areas throughout the state. Recognizing that the boundaries of counties and regional park districts may overlap, only the population of the jurisdiction which will actually provide and administer the recreational service contemplated shall be counted in the area of overlapping jurisdiction.
