Future LCCMR Request for Proposals (RFP) Schedule

Calendar-Year 2008 (funding to begin July 1, 2009)
Calendar-year 2008 is being structured as a "transition year" to put the LCCMR onto a reliable, recurring annual proposal cycle into the future. A 2008 calendar structure has been adopted - specific dates are being confirmed and will be posted upon confirmation. There will be two phases of LCCMR proposal requests for 2008:  

  • Mid-June 2008: The Commission will consider and make specific proposal requests to existing, ongoing Trust Fund funded projects in the areas of natural resource data, land acquisition, and habitat restoration. Due date for these proposals will be late August and the Commission will hear proposal presentations in September.

  • Late-July 2008: The Commission will issue an RFP that will be specific and targeted based upon information received in the Statewide Conservation and Preservation Plan (www.mnconservationplan.net), which will be completed by June 30, 2008. Due date for these proposals will be early October and the Commission will hear proposal presentations in early December.

Proposal recommendation decisions will be finalized in early December and presented to the 2009 legislature in January.

Calendar-Year 2009 (funding to begin July 1, 2010 ), Calendar-Year 2010 (funding to begin July 1, 2011 ), and Beyond
The LCCMR has adopted a structure for a regular annual proposal cycle that will begin in calendar-year 2009 and is intended to be recurring into the future.  Preliminary calendars for 2009 and 2010 have been adopted; specific dates will be announced as they become available sometime in the months preceding each calendar-year. The general structure is as follows:
