SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Virginia Outdoors Foundation's regional open-space preservation advisory boards. Abolishes the six regional open-space preservation advisory boards and requires a broad geographical representation for the members of the Virginia Outdoors Foundation board of trustees. Each advisory board evaluates grant applications from applicants proposing to convey easements located within its region; identifies applications that will provide the most significant open-space preservation benefits according to guidelines and timetables developed by the Foundation; and forwards these recommendations to the Foundation. The boards have not been active recently. This bill is a recommendation of the Joint Subcommittee Studying the Operations, Practices, Duties, and Funding of the Commonwealth's Agencies, Boards, Commissions, Councils, and Other Governmental Entities pursuant to HJR 159 (2002). This bill is identical to HB 2376.
