(a)
Eighty-eight percent of the moneys shall be available for grants to cities, counties, and districts in nonurbanized areas on a project-by-project basis and on the basis of need for the acquisition or development of, or for special major maintenance of, recreational lands and facilities, or for innovative recreation programs. The criteria for determining need shall include, but are not limited to, deficiencies in existing park and recreational lands and facilities, the impact of participants from outside the jurisdiction, and the overall merit of the grant proposal.
