Statewide Park Program (SPP) -- 2010 - 2012 Rounds One and Two funded by Proposition 84

    

     "Before and After" project examples (September 12, 2016)

     

 

      

From 2010 to 2012, the $368 million Statewide Park Program awarded grants for the creation of new parks and recreation facilities in critically underserved communities throughout California.  "All Funds Have Been Allocated"

     
900 applications requested $ 2.9 billion for the available $368 million.  This clearly shows the extent of unmet community needs throughout California.

      Over 100 new parks will be created.  Youth, seniors, and families determined what they wanted in these new parks through community-based planning.

California State Parks Community Fact Finder
This web-based tool combines mapping and demographic data to calculate the total population, median household income, number of families below poverty, and the ratio of park acres per 1,000 residents within a half-mile radius of any project location throughout California.  The data was used for Project Selection Criteria #1 and #2 (see pages 26-29 in the Application Guide.)
