COSA Funding opportunities for research on City of Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks lands; RFP posted

Hello COSA listserv:

The Open Space and Mountain Parks Department (OSMP) of the City of Boulder has funding available through its Funded Research Program for scientific inquiry on OSMP lands that address natural, agricultural, cultural, and visitor resource conditions and management. Preference is given to original proposals that address priority research topics identified by the department. However, all proposals will be considered based on their merits. For research that crosses the boundaries of OSMP and our neighbors (Boulder County Parks and Open Space, Jefferson County Open Space, and the City of Longmont), we will also consider interagency grant proposals for joint funding.

The maximum award amount for OSMP proposals is $12,000. Proposal deadline is Jan 9, 2025.
