Public Meetings for Grant Rule Changes - Correction

TPWD Recreation Grants is planning a series of statewide public input meetings to discuss and assess evaluation criteria for awarding funds through the Community Outdoor Outreach Program (CO-OP) Grant and for Local Park Grants. Your feedback will assist TPWD in keeping the evaluation criteria relevant for future grant applicants. Those unable to attend a public meeting will have the opportunity to participate in an online webinar. 

You can find the existing evaluation criteria for each of these grant programs by visiting our website at https://tpwd.texas.gov/business/grants/recreation-grants

After the results of public input are obtained, TPWD staff will propose evaluation criteria rule changes for adoption by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission in early 2019.
