From the meeting
At its August 13, 2026 meeting, the commission adopted amended Chapters V and VI of the Rules of Practice and Procedure for the Public Access, Open Space, and Natural Resources Preservation Fund Commission. The revision added a new maintenance grants application process and clarified that maintenance grant funds may cover monitoring and enforcement of conservation easements and related stewardship requirements, while excluding attorney's fees and litigation costs. Staff said the amendments had gone through Chapter 91 hearings and were ready for adoption.
The next step after the commission action was a public hearing.
