Rule Chapter 9K-8, F.A.C., establishes the Florida Communities Trust (FCT) land acquisition procedures using Florida Forever funds. The proposed changes to Rule Chapter 9K-8, F.A.C., further serve to clarify terminology relating to these land acquisition procedures. The purpose of the program described in this rule chapter is to provide grants to Local Governments and Nonprofit Environmental Organizations for the acquisition of community-based projects, urban open spaces, natural resources conservation areas, parks, greenways, and outdoor recreation areas to further implementation of their local Comprehensive Plans.
