T. Mark Schmidt Off-Highway Vehicle Recreation Grant Program
The T. Mark Schmidt OHV Recreation Grant Program provides financial assistance to public agencies statewide to improve OHV riding opportunities on public lands. Grant funding comes from the titling of OHVs, which includes off-highway motorcycles, recreational off-highway and all-terrain vehicles only. All new OHVs sold in Florida or that are operated on public lands must be titled with the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles.
The grant program is available to any municipal or local government, state or federal agency or entity, Native American tribal government, or legally organized nonprofit organizations.
Grants will be made available for projects that improve OHV riding opportunities on public lands; maintain existing or new riding areas; provide environmental protection and restoration to affected areas in the system; provide enforcement of applicable regulations related to the system and off-highway vehicle activities; provide safety, training and rider education in the operation of off-highway vehicles; and, if funds are available, acquire lands to be included in the system and manage, maintain and rehabilitate such lands.
