Description and schedule (hereinafter referred to as "Project") attached hereto as
Exhibit "B," Grant Project Cost/Budget attached hereto as Exhibit "C," and evidence
of Project site ownership or lease attached hereto as Exhibit "D." The parties agree
that the Project Description is a description of CITY's obligations and responsibilities
and is deemed to include preliminary considerations and prerequisites, and all labor,
materials, equipments, and tasks, which are such an inseparable part of the work
described, that exclusion would render performance by CITY impractical, illogical, or
unconscionable.
1.2 The COUNTY's Grant Program Administrator may approve changes to the Scope of
Services, Project description, unit of services, and changes within the categories of
expenditures listed in Exhibits "A," "B," "C," provided that the total grant dollars
awarded to CITY remains unchanged. The COUNTY's Grant Program
Administrator may also approve changes to the Project Description if the revisions
are consistent with the grant application and the Grant Program guidelines, and the
revisions do not diminish the quantity or quality of services to be provided.
1.3 For Projects where the site was not acquired utilizing 2000 Broward County Safe
Parks and Land Preservation Bond funds, CITY agrees to execute a Declaration of
Restrictive Covenants, in a form acceptable to the County Attorney's Office,

purposes for a minimum of twenty-five (25) years. The Declaration shall be
recorded in the Official Records for Broward County, Florida, pursuant to Section
28.222, Florida Statutes. CITY further agrees to return to COUNTY all funds
tendered for the Project in the event the Project becomes utilized during this period
for other than the public recreational purposes of the Project.

EXHIBIT "A"
PROGRAM GUIDELINES —PARKS FOR PEOPLE
Qualified Applicants
Municipalities that own Green Space and Open Space sites acquired through the 2000
Bond Program with development funding already allocated in the municipality's 5-year
Capital Improvement Program which are interested in incorporating "green component"
standards as described in this application package.
Funding Requirement
Except as provided in this section, funds from this grant may only be applied to the actual
costs incurred in "green components" used in the site development. No part of this grant
funding shall be used for project management, administration or overhead costs. The
grant funding may not be used to cover costs associated with the preparation, submission
or presentation of the funding application.
Project Match Requirement
This is a supplemental grant award given to municipalities that incorporate "green
components" in the development of bond acquired sites. The applicant's cost share is the
amount allocated in the 5-year Capital Improvement Plan for the project site equivalent to
the applicant's requested amount.
Minimum Criteria
Applicant must fulfill all minimum criteria to be considered for grant award. Please fill in as
appropriate:
1. The grant applicant project site has been acquired through the 2000 Safe Parks and
Land Preservation Bond Program;

CAF#555
10/16/08 14
Green Components Criteria
The Land Stewardship Program defines "green components" as products and/or
technologies used in site development for public service that reduce the environmental
burden associated with traditional technologies, materials or fixtures. For example: the
environmental burden associated with improper landscape irrigation systems.
Furthermore, "green components" are economically viable products and/or technologies
that adhere to County and State regulations; are actively pursued throughout all site
development; and are becoming integral in the municipality's building development

practices; (2) sound irrigation technologies and practices; (3) environmentally friendly and
sustainable site development practices, recycled and wood certified materials, etc; (4)

In a 2-page narrative, please explain which "green components" your project site utilized
and support the choices with a qualitative analysis on cost reductions, consumption costs,
energy savings, etc.
