Section 2698.97 - Funding Procedure

(a) Funding of a grant shall be in the form of a grant award agreement. Each applicant whose application has been approved for grant funding shall submit an enabling resolution by the county Board of Supervisors approving and authorizing execution of a grant award agreement.

(b) Distribution of grant award funds shall be on a quarterly basis. Funding and dates of distribution shall be contingent upon the adoption of an annual State Budget Act and the collection of assessments. The duration of a grant, otherwise known as a funding cycle, shall be one fiscal year.

(c) Within 60 days after the end of each funding cycle, a grantee shall provide the Department with an estimate of any unexpended and/or unencumbered funds. A grantee who has undertaken investigations and prosecutions which will carry-over into a subsequent funding cycle may carry-over into the subsequent funding cycle distributed but unused funds not exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the total funding award, provided that the grantee files a written plan, at the end of the funding cycle, which specifies and justifies to the Commissioner how those funds will be used. In the event that, due to extenuating circumstances, distributed funds exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the previous total funding award are unused, the Commissioner may consider and approve requests for carry-over of the unused funds to the extent that the grantee provides justification.
