Parks and recreation grants in Utah

Public money for parks and recreation in Utah mostly funds the spaces themselves, not software. AirCourt helps you compete for it by documenting community need and visitor use, which are common scoring criteria.

Programs

Where the money is in Utah

Utah Outdoor Recreation Grant (UORG)

Including the Community Parks and Recreation tier, it funds new and improved park and recreation amenities. Municipalities are eligible, a local match applies, and the cycle runs annually.

Outdoor Recreation Planning Assistance

Funds visitor-use studies and planning work, which is where occupancy data fits most directly.

Land and Water Conservation Fund

Federal money administered through Utah State Parks that supports public outdoor recreation projects on a matching basis.

Community Development Block Grants

Support parks and recreation facilities in smaller communities.

Programs, eligibility, match requirements, and application cycles change year to year. Confirm current details with each program before applying.

Occupancy data

Park occupancy data for Utah

AirCourt gives Utah communities a continuous, private count of how their parks, courts, and trails are used, by hour, day, and season. That record turns a grant narrative about community need into something you can show.

All counts are anonymous. No personal data is retained, and no individual is identifiable. The result is usage data a community can stand behind in front of its residents and its funders.
