§ 141.172. Application criteria.

 (a)  Official adoption. The applicant’s governing body shall officially authorize the application and the chief elected official of the applicant shall sign the application before it is submitted to the Department. For FFY 1985 and subsequent year entitlement grant applications, counties shall certify that an entitlement grant application, submitted on behalf of another entitlement entity within the county, was authorized by the affected entitlement entity.

 (b)  Content. Applications shall contain materials, forms and certifications properly completed and executed which are required by the Department.

   (1)  Counties may submit a separate or combined application for the entitlement grants administered by that county.

   (2)  If an entitlement grant application is found to be deficient by the Department, the entitlement entity or county, or both, will be notified that it has 45 days in which to resubmit a corrected application. If this resubmittal deadline is not met, or if the resubmitted application continues to be deficient, the Department may then distribute these funds under the act.

     (i)   FFY 1984. If an application is found by the Department to be deficient for some reason, the applicant may be notified that it has 45 days in which to resubmit an amended and corrected application.

     (ii)   FFY 1985 and thereafter.

 (c)  Preagreement costs.

   (1)  FFY 1984. Reasonable preagreement costs will be allowed for grant reimbursement if the costs are in accordance with 24 CFR 570.200(h) (relating to general policies).

   (2)  FFY 1985 and thereafter. Reasonable preagreement costs are allowable costs if undertaken under 24 CFR 570.200(h) and will be allowed at the discretion of the Department. If an application resubmittal is required, the costs cannot be reimbursed a second time.

 (d)  Submission. An application shall be submitted to the Department in accordance with the announced time schedule, deadlines and quantities of required materials.

 (e)  Awards.

   (1)  FFY 1984. The Department will determine grant awards within 45 days from the announced submission deadline date. This 45-day rule may be extended in situations where submissions have been returned to an applicant for resubmission of amended applications. The Department reserves the right to adjust grant requests up or down depending on the Department’s judgment as to appropriate funding levels required by individual grant applications.

   (2)  FFY 1985 and thereafter.

     (i)   Entitlement grants. The Department will determine grant awards within 45 days from the announced submission deadline date.
