- Continue suggested county-based matching scale into CPR.
- Cities must show their operating budget if they cannot meet their suggested county match (might allow cities like West Valley to still apply in a 50/50 county with a lower match rate)
Defining 'Suggested Match' - When applying for a UORG or CPR award, the expectation is that the county-based matching scale will be the most appropriate match rate. However, applicants can apply for a reduced matching rate if there is clear justification that the rate assigned to their county presents an insurmountable barrier to pursuing project funding. Applicants will be asked to provide this justification within the application. The minimum match rate for all applicants is 20%.
- Utilize tools to rank projects based on acres of park per resident, walking distance to parks, demographics etc.... We're exploring how Park Serve can help us rank and score projects where cities might have different needs but could be ranked with a scoring system that equalizes differences (Minersville vs Murray example)
