加州州立公园2027年LWCF地方补助开放申请:总额约2750万美元,单项最高600万美元、须五成配套

加利福尼亚州州立公园局下属的补助与地方服务办公室(OGALS)现正受理2027年联邦土地与水源保护基金(LWCF)地方机构竞争性补助申请,截止时间为2027年1月14日晚11时59分,通过州立公园在线门户(OGALS Submittable)提交,不接受纸质申请。本轮面向地方机构的资金池估计约2,750万美元,单个项目最高可申请600万美元;这笔总额是全州竞争的总盘子,不是单个申请者的额度。
合格申请者为加州的城市与县、联邦承认的原住民部落、成员为公共机构且以公园与休闲为目的的联合权力机构,以及有权取得、运营和维护公共公园与 recreation 区域的非州级公园、休闲或特别区。普通商业供应商与不具合格公共申请者身份的非营利组织不在本轮之列。申请方必须提供50%的合格配套资金,并自担其余非联邦成本。
补助可用于土地购置或公共户外休闲设施的开发,例如公园、游乐场、运动场、步道、野餐设施与 休闲通行改善。受 LWCF 资助的场地必须永久专用于公共户外休闲,日后转为非休闲用途一般须经联邦批准并提供合格替代地。申请方须准备官方申请表、授权决议、项目范围与预算说明、场地权属文件、CEQA 证明与边界图清单等材料;州立公园先行评审,再把入选项目送交国家公园管理局做最终审查与批准。
州立公园提醒,本轮地方机构竞争与州级机构的拨款周期是两个不同程序,不要混淆;当前2027年申请指南、申请资格卡与配套和报销指引以州立公园 LWCF 项目页面为准,有意申请的地方机构应尽早核对资格与全州户外休闲优先方向后提交,并保留门户的确认电邮。
California State Parks Opens 2027 LWCF Local Grants: About $27.5 Million Pool, Up to $6 Million per Project
The California Department of Parks and Recreation's Office of Grants and Local Services (OGALS) is accepting applications for the 2027 Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Local Agency Competitive Program through January 14, 2027, at 11:59 p.m., via the State Parks online portal (OGALS Submittable); paper submissions are not accepted. The estimated statewide funding pool for this local-agency round is about $27.5 million, and eligible agencies may request up to $6 million per project; the pool is the total allocation for the competition, not an individual award.
Eligible applicants are California cities and counties, federally recognized Native American tribes, qualified joint powers authorities with public agency members and a park-and-recreation purpose, and non-state park, recreation or special districts authorized to acquire, operate and maintain public park and recreation areas. Ordinary commercial vendors and nonprofits without qualifying public applicant status are not eligible in this round. Applicants must provide a mandatory 50% qualifying match and finance the remaining nonfederal costs.
Funding supports land acquisition or development of public outdoor recreation amenities such as parks, playgrounds, athletic fields, trails, picnic facilities and recreation access improvements. LWCF-assisted sites must remain dedicated to public outdoor recreation in perpetuity, and later conversion to non-recreation use generally requires federal approval and qualifying replacement land. Applicants must prepare the official application form, authorizing resolution, project scope and budget narrative, site tenure documentation, CEQA certification and boundary map checklist where applicable; State Parks evaluates applications before forwarding selected projects to the National Park Service for final review and approval.
State Parks notes this local-agency competition is separate from the state-agency apportionment cycle. The current 2027 Application Guide, eligibility card and match and reimbursement guidance are on the State Parks LWCF program page, and applicants are advised to verify eligibility and statewide outdoor recreation priorities early and retain the portal's confirmation email after submitting.
