BOARD OF CHOSEN FREEHOLDERS – DECEMBER 22, 2014
-(45)
WHEREAS, the County of Morris established the Open Space, Farmland,
Floodplain Protection and Historic Preservation Trust Fund (“Trust Fund”); and
WHEREAS, official Rules and Regulations for the administration of the
Trust Fund were last adopted by the Morris County Board of Chosen Freeholders
on May 26, 2010 and are amended as necessary; and
WHEREAS, based upon the recommendation of the Open Space Trust Fund
Committee (“Committee”), it is the intention of the Board of Chosen
Freeholders to amend the acquisition procedures of the Municipal and/or
Qualified Charitable Conservancy grant program.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Morris County Board of Chosen
Freeholders as follows:
1.
Section 3.3.6 Acquisition Procedures of the official Rules & Regulations
for the Administration of the Open Space, Farmland, Floodplain
Protection, and Historic Preservation Trust Fund, shall be replaced in
whole to read as follows:
The Open Space Trust Fund Committee shall develop an application package
and establish criteria by which applications in the "municipal and/or
qualified charitable conservancy" category are to be evaluated.
Applicants which have been approved for funding shall fund all costs
incurred in connection with the acquisition of any land or interest
therein including but not limited to the cost incurred for: appraisals,
wetland delineations, surveys, preliminary assessment reports, title
searches, legal expenditures and any other costs associated with the
acquisition of such land or interest therein.
The grant award approved by the Morris County Board of Chosen
Freeholders is based on the cost of acquisition (i.e., appraised value,
contract amount, verbal offer) provided in the grant application. Upon
review and acceptance of an applicant’s appraisal report, the appraised
value shall become the Morris County Accepted Market Value (AMV). The
final grant award shall be the dollar amount approved by the Freeholder
Board or the dollar amount calculated by multiplying the actual
acquisition cost by the original grant award percentage of the
application acquisition cost, whichever is less. The maximum County cost
share shall not exceed the Morris County Accepted Market Value (AMV).
The final grant award shall be based on the Morris County AMV when the
actual acquisition cost exceeds the AMV. Examples:

Applicants approved for funding shall have fifteen (15) months to
acquire the property. The timeframe will commence on January 1st of the
following calendar year. Additionally, all approved applicants can
obtain up to two grant extensions if it is shown that there are
challenging circumstances which inhibit a project’s acquisition within
the initial 15-month deadline. The first grant extension shall extend
for six (6) months from the expiration of the initial 15-month deadline.
Applicants shall have a fully executed contract by the expiration date
of the first grant extension to be eligible for a second grant
extension. The Open Space Trust Fund Committee shall have the ability
to grant a second grant extension without a fully executed contract,
upon showing of good cause (e.g., delays in obtaining NJDEP permits).
An updated appraisal may be required as a condition of a second grant
262
BOARD OF CHOSEN FREEHOLDERS – DECEMBER 22, 2014
extension. The change in requirements for granting a second grant
extension shall apply to all grants awarded in 2012 and all subsequent
funding rounds. The second grant extension for eligible applicants
shall extend from the expiration of the first grant extension to the
date of the application deadline for the next year’s funding round. The
change in the expiration date of the second grant extension shall apply
to all grants awarded in 2008, 2009 and all subsequent funding rounds.
Example for a grant awarded in 2009:
Grant Period
Initial grant of 15 months
First grant extension
Second grant extension
Expiration Date
April 1, 2011
October 1, 2011
Open Space application deadline in
June 2012
If the applicant fails to complete the project within the aforementioned
timeframes, the applicant shall forfeit the grant and may re-apply in a
subsequent funding round. Under no circumstances shall this guarantee
the project would again be awarded a grant.
Applicants approved for funding shall have 90 days from January 1 to
return the executed grant agreement to the county. Failure to return
the executed grant agreement to the county within this time frame shall
result in the forfeiture of the grant award.
2.
All other official Rules and Regulations for the administration of the
Open Space, Farmland, Floodplain Protection and Historic Preservation
Trust Fund not inconsistent herewith shall remain in full force and
effect.
3.
These changes shall take effect immediately.
