Terms Governing Use:
Biographical/Historical:     The Florida Park Service was originally created in 1935 as the Board of Parks and Historic Memorials (Chapter 17025, Laws of Florida) and administered within the Board of Forestry.  The Park Service's first eight parks were designed and built by the Civilian Conservation Corps.  In 1949, the Park Service became an independent agency, the Board of Parks and Historic Memorials (Ch. 25353, Laws).  Its purpose was to administer and control the operation and development of the state parks and historic sites of Florida. In 1969, the Board was merged with the Outdoor Recreational Development Council (Ch. 63-36, Laws) to form the Division of Recreation and Parks (Ch. 69-106, Laws) under the Department of Natural Resources.  The Division eventually moved to the newly created Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) in 1993 (Ch. 93-213, Laws).
Summary:     This series contains topographic maps, geographic maps, architectural records, oversized photographs, and aerial view photographs created and compiled by the Florida Park Service.  The maps and photographs document forests, beaches, roads, and parks in Florida.  Also included in this collection is a log book that assisted park staff in creating and updating the maps.  The majority of the maps in this series are county geographical maps.
