   by  January  1,  2003 and every 2 years thereafter.  Creates the Local      
   Legacy Program to fund county-municipal partnerships for  the  purpose      
   of  inventorying  and protecting natural areas, farmland, and cultural

   provides  that  those  counties,  municipalities,  and  units of local      
   government that have adopted a Resource Protection Plan shall  receive      
   preferential status for grant moneys under the Act.  Creates the Local      
   Legacy  Fund as a special fund in the State treasury and specifies the      
   purposes for which the Fund moneys may be used. Amends the State
