How can an individual landowner participate in the CFCP?
Individuals cannot directly apply for CFCP grants. The CFCP enabling legislation requires that applicants be either a city, county, or a qualified non-profit organization (such as a land trust). Individuals may contact eligible potential applicants to determine if their property is consistent with the land conservation objectives of that entity. The Department of Conservation can assist landowners in identifying appropriate entities that would be qualified to apply for a CFCP grant on their behalf.
