Holt, Director <br />Joe Gibson, Director <br />GENERAL MANAGER EMERITUS <br />Tex Ward <br />The Conejo Recreation and Park District Capital Improvement Fund Grant is a tool for <br />community groups to turn their project concepts into a reality. It is the goal of the District that <br />money will be set aside each year to fund this program so that groups may contribute projects <br />that will enhance our parks and facilities which will benefit the community and its members. <br />Non-profit groups may apply for fund dollars to initiate, plan, organize, and implement a project <br />in partnership with CRPD. <br />These applications are for requests that will address easily identifiable park and recreational <br />needs such as adding park furnishings, addressing maintenance issues, and purchasing or <br />enhancing recreational equipment. The projects must be completed in 12 months or less. <br />There are two categories for requests: <br />NON-MATCHING - The request for funds may be up to a maximum of $5,000 for each project. <br />MATCHING - The request for matching funds must be'a minimum of $5,000 and no more than <br />the maximum of $25,000 for each project. The raising of necessary funds will be the <br />responsibility of the individual or organization proposing the project. The District cannot assist <br />with the funding and will match the funds of the project proposal when approved. <br />Since its inception (application period Fiscal Year 2009-2010 and project execution in Fiscal <br />Year 2010-2011), approximately $407,000 has been granted over five grant cycles to various <br />organizations. <br />403 West Hillcrest Drive I Thousand Oaks, CA 91360-4223 <br />(805) 495-6471 FAX: (805) 497-3199 Email: parks@crpd.org <br />
