There is hereby established the FUN Parks Grants Program to be administered by the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism. The purpose of the FUN Parks Program is to provide basic outdoor recreation facilities including baseball and softball fields, basketball courts, picnic tables and pavilions, and playground equipment to residents of small Arkansas communities. The goal of this program is to build two hundred (200) new outdoor parks statewide in communities of two thousand five hundred (2,500) or less as established by the 1990 census. Up to fifty (50) new FUN parks may be constructed each year in each of the next four (4) years at a cost not to exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000) for each FUN park.
