A. The evaluation criteria for applications shall be developed for each application cycle and shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

(1) overall quality of the alternative adjudication program for which grant funds are sought and proposal approach;

(2) financial need of the alternative adjudication program and estimated impact of grant funds (e.g., grant funds would allow alternative adjudication program to remain operational; grant funds would allow the alternative adjudication program to serve more clients; or grant funds would allow alternative adjudication program to provide a higher level of service to clients);

(3) number of clients to be served;

(4) number and quality of components to be provided to clients;

(5) past performance of the alternative adjudication program (except for new programs);

(6) expenditure rates and performance of any current or past grant(s); and

(7) whether the alternative adjudication program will receive direct legislative appropriations during the grant period, in which case the amount of grant funds that the grantee would otherwise be awarded will be reduced by the amount of such direct legislative appropriations for the alternative adjudication program.

B. Evaluators selected by the division shall evaluate all applications for eligibility and completeness. Complete applications that meet all threshold eligibility requirements shall be evaluated and rated based upon the evaluation criteria established in the application. Funding recommendations will be made to the division director based upon those ratings.

C. At any time during the application process, the division may request, and applicants shall provide, any additional information and documentation that the division feels is necessary to evaluate the application.

D. Division staff may consult appropriate non-staff experts for information and advice concerning technical aspects of any application.

E. The division director shall review staff ratings and recommendations and make grant program award decisions. The amount of the grant award may be less than the amount requested in the application

F. The division will enter into grant agreements with grantees. The grant period will ordinarily be for a single fiscal year; provided, however, that the division may, in its discretion, provide a longer or shorter grant period.
