Projects with Purchase Contracts exceeding the
appraised value will be returned to the Natural Resources
Assistance Councils for validation. These projects will
not be issued a Notice to Proceed until this validation has
occurred.
Projects that consist of leveraging the difference between
the appraised value and purchase contract will also be
required to have an appraisal review performed by an
Ohio Department of Transportation Prequalified Appraisal
Reviewer to ensure that the purchase price history,
comparables, adjustments, and disclaimers are accurate.
Applicants that have an appraisal review rejected will not
be issued a Notice to Proceed until these discrepancies
are resolved.
Properties above appraised value are eligible, but it is
important for the NRAC to be cognitive of this difference
and must validate the value of properties that are using
the difference between the Purchase Contract and

OPWC POLICY REGARDING MINERAL RIGHTS:
 Existing oil and gas leases, at the time the Natural
Resources Assistance Council approves the project,
will be treated as pre-existing easements. Thus, these
applications will be approved as submitted.
 Requests to engage in oil and gas leasing on Clean
Ohio Properties that have been acquired along with the
mineral rights will be denied.
 Requests to engage in these activities on Clean Ohio
Properties acquired with a third party holding the

OPEN SPACE IN CUYAHOGA
COUNTY





Largest and most urbanized of Ohio’s counties.
90% of land is developed and only 10% is designated
open space.
Existing open space areas.
Existing Open Spaces
 Fragmented
 Not always accessible
to the public
 Some are degraded/
destroyed by pollution
and mismanagement
 Others abandoned due to poor
planning and outmigration
DISTRICT ONE NRAC
PRINCIPLES

To ensure that projects are visible, accessible and
instructional, the NRAC has 5 guiding principles:
1. Preserve natural areas or open space.
2. Restore landscapes that have been
degraded or destroyed.
3. Enhance the quality of natural areas or open
space.
4. Link natural areas to each other or to county
cultural and civic heritage areas.
5. Provide public access to natural areas
and/or county cultural and civic heritage
areas.
RESTORATION ACTIVITIES






Restoration MUST be accompanied by
acquisition of land for protection
Restoration activities MUST be included in the
project budget to be eligible for restoration
points.
Examples of restoration components:
Returning the open space to a natural state;
 Ensuring the integrity and sustainability of the
species (flora/fauna) are both native and resilient;
 Integrate the community’s cultural heritage; and
 Provide opportunities for cultural and ecological
relationships.
