Trail program grant applications being sought

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission is accepting Recreational Trail Program grant applications for fiscal year 2018 funding.

 

It's a grant program in which the Federal Highway Administration reimburses political subdivisions up to 80 percent of project costs for trail acquisition, development, renovation and support facilities.

 

The funds are divided among three categories: motorized trails (30 percent), non-motorized trails (30 percent) and diversified or shared-use trails (40 percent).

 

The application materials can be downloaded at outdoornebraska.gov/grants. Applications must be submitted by Aug. 31.
