Description

Virginia Land Conservation Fund; public access parkland. Adds "public access parkland" to the uses for which money from the Virginia Land Conservation Fund (the "Fund") must be spent in those years when the Fund contains more than $10 million. The Virginia Outdoors Foundation, which administers the Fund, will award grants for public access parkland based on a number of factors, including the availability of alternative public parks in the planning districts where the property is located and the number of people in an immediate geographical area that will have access to the property rather than the size of the property.
