BOUNDARY MAP
A boundary map is required for all projects requesting acquisition assistance or using sponsor or
publicly owned property as match. This map should be a scaled drawing no larger than 11” x 17” which
includes all of the following:
1. Sponsor and project name;
2. Directional arrow and scale;
3. Acquisition area and parcel boundaries with each parcel to be acquired labeled in the same manner
as the “Acquisition Schedule.” Boundaries should be drawn to scale, or if possible, identified using
a metes and bounds legal description.
NOTE: For projects proposing acquisition of land which will expand an existing park, the boundary
map should include the entire area of the existing park and the parcels to be acquired;
4. Locate and label all easements, overhead utilities, structures & improvements, water bodies,
adjoining streets (including designated right-of-ways), and future or proposed streets.
FIVE-YEAR HISTORY OF PROPERTY CONVEYANCE
If land, structures, or improvements are to be acquired by donation, by partial donation through a
bargain sale, or if the property is owned by the sponsor or some other public entity, a five-year history
of property conveyance must be included in the application. This is to ensure that the property is
eligible to serve as all or part of the sponsor’s matching share for this project.
