33 IC1905 (Rev. 02/10/2009)
CHAPTER 4: APPLICATION SCORING CRITERIA There are ten core criteria for evaluating development applications and nine core criteria for evaluating acquisition applications. In addition, the MNRTF Board has chosen three priority project types to be used to score 2009 applications to the MNRTF Program. An application may only earn points under one of the priority project types. All core criteria and priority project types are listed below, along with a brief description of the factors used to score each one.
For more detailed information on the application scoring criteria, we encourage you to request and review a copy of the evaluation worksheet used by Grants Management to score recreation grant applications. You may want to use it to evaluate your own application to look for opportunities to improve it before submitting it to the Department. Applications will be scored based on the specific information provided in the application. In most cases, Grants Management staff will also visit a site as part of the application evaluation process. While staff tries to visit as many sites as possible, do not rely on site visits as a way to communicate project information to us. Development Application Scoring Criteria 1. NEED FOR PROJECT A. Rationale for the Project—The proposed project is consistent with the
community/state recreation plan’s goals and objectives and is adequately justified in terms of the need for additional facilities of the type proposed and the availability of the proposed type of facility in the region was evaluated (as appropriate).
20
B. Collaboration—The plan (or application) was developed through collaboration with stakeholders that may include adjacent communities, non-profit organizations, user groups, and other entities as appropriate.
20
C. Public Support—The application/recreation plan demonstrates that the proposed project is widely supported in the community/region. Also, there is minimal public opposition to the proposed project or applicant is working to address the concerns. Opposition based primarily on the desire to keep the public from the state’s natural resources will not be considered.
20
Maximum Possible Points (A + B + C) 60
2. SITE AND PROJECT QUALITY A. Ability to Get to the Site—The amount of directional signage is adequate for the
type of park. The park site is easily recognized as a public park or outdoor recreation land. The park can be directly and safely accessed and is appropriately located for the type of project. For urban projects, site is on a public transportation route.
20
B. Compatibility—Site is compatible with its intended purpose and the proposed site design. Site design is clear and understandable.
20
C. Renovation--Project involves renovation or redevelopment at an existing park site. Renovation projects needed as a result of inadequate maintenance or design do not qualify for these points.
20
D. Use of Environmentally Friendly Materials and Innovative Technology 20
34 IC1905 (Rev. 02/10/2009)
E. Crime Prevention Measures—Potential crime issues have been addressed. 20
F. Programming/Marketing—The applicant has addressed how they will make the public aware of the project.

Applicant has not closed, sold, or otherwise transferred use or control of any park or recreation facility for non-public recreation purposes within the past 5 years; OR applicant has closed, sold, or otherwise transferred use or control of any park or recreation facility for non-public recreation purposes within the past 5 years but has provided a compelling reason for the action OR applicant has completed mitigation.
