Matching funds total $20.7 million, resulting in total project costs of $49.4 million. The MNRTF provides financial assistance to local units of government or qualifying nonprofits and to the Department of Natural Resources for public acquisition of lands for resource protection and public outdoor recreation. Applications for assistance from the MNRTF are accepted annually, and recommendations are made by the MNRTF Board and submitted to the legislature for approval and appropriation of funds. Prior to reaching its constitutional cap of $500.0 million in 2011, the Michigan Constitution directed that the MNRTF receive revenues from bonuses, rentals, delayed rentals, and royalties collected or reserved by the state under provisions of leases for extraction of nonrenewable resources from state-owned lands, except revenues accruing under leases of state-owned lands acquired with money from the state or federal Game and Fish Protection Funds or revenues accruing from lands purchased with such revenues. Additionally, the Michigan Constitution directed annual expenditures from the MNRTF to consist of interest and earnings on the principal and up to 33 1/3% of fund revenue received in the previous fiscal year. Since reaching the $500.0 million cap in 2011, the MNRTF is no longer eligible to receive annual revenues from bonuses, rentals, delayed rentals, and royalties. These revenues are now deposited to the Michigan State Parks Endowment Fund until the fund balance reaches $800.0 million; it is currently at $282.7 million. Annual expenditures from the MNRTF are limited to interest and investment earnings of the principal, and funding carried forward from previous years. The Michigan Constitution requires that not less than 25% of the total amount made available for expenditure from annual MNRTF revenue be House Fiscal Agency 1 7/21/2020 expended for acquisition of land and rights in land, and not more than 25% of the total amount made available for expenditure from annual MNRTF revenue be expended for development of public recreation facilities.

Acquisition projects ($17.2 million) amount to 37.4% of available funds; development projects ($11.5 million) amount to 25.0% of available funds.

  • Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund (MNRTF) Grants for 5 Active Or Completed Projects
    The COUNTY ALCONA MICHIGAN NATURAL RESOURCES TRUST FUND was established under the Kammer Recreational Land Trust Fund Act of 1976 to provide a permanent funding source for the public acquisition of land for resource protection and public outdoor recreation. Funding is provided by revenue derived from royalties on the sale and lease of state-owned oil, gas and mineral rights. This landmark piece of legislation came to fruition thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Michigan Oil and Gas Association, Michigan United Conservation Clubs and state legislators on behalf of all Michigan citizens. The MNRTF has contributed immeasurably to protecting our state’s natural beauty and helped paved the way for wise and prudent development of our state’s abundant energy resources. To date, the MNRTF has awarded over $1.1 billion in grants to Michigan’s state and local parks, waterways, trails and nature preserves throughout all 83 counties. Of this total, $245 million has been invested in trails. In excess of 1,000 public parks have been acquired and / or developed. Other projects funded include ball fields, tennis courts, trailheads, restrooms and other amenities, for a total of just under 2,500 MNRTF-assisted projects since 1976. ALCONA COUNTY Alcona County has received $644,100 in Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund (MNRTF) grants for 5 active or completed projects.

  • 2014 April River Ride Publisher Version
    Friends of the Flint River Trail 5LYHU5LGH “Riding together in Flint and Genesee County” 2014 Who are The Friends of the Flint River Trail? For 16 years, the Friends of the Flint River Trail have led regular Sunday bicycle rides on the trail, have advocated for trail expansion, have volunteered hours of service on the trail, and have promoted safe and active bicycling. We are an active chapter of the Flint River Watershed Coalition (FRWC). Our Sunday rides are family friendly, leisurely rides of about 10-12 miles in length. Our favorite destinations along the trail are Stepping Stones Falls and Blue Bell Beach – both in the Genesee County Parks system. Our rides are scheduled every week from the first Sunday in May through the last Sunday in October. The rides start at 2:00 from the old Flint Farmers’ Market at the intersection of Boulevard Drive and Robert T. Longway Boulevard. In recent years, we have averaged 35-40 riders every Sunday, each coming from about 30 different zip codes. We have introduced many riders to the trail, to the river, and to beautiful sites along the trail. The riders form a positive impression of the Flint River – thus promoting the mission of the FRWC. Last year volunteers from the FFRT donated over 300 volunteer hours cleaning, mowing, trimming branches and removing fallen trees from along the trail. We were instrumental in advocating for the Kearsley Park Trail, the paving of the trail between Dort Highway and Carpenter Road, and the west extension from downtown to Ballenger Highway at McLaren Hospital.
