(a) The corporation shall evaluate proposals submitted for assistance under the program in accordance with the following criteria:
(1) the total number of jobs expected to be
created or retained;
(2) the ratio
of the number of jobs (to be created or retained) to the amount of assistance
provided by the program. In general, financing will not be approved for
projects that anticipate a return of less than one job for every $15,000 of
State financial assistance;

demonstrated need for such assistance. Rejection of requested financing from
private sources constitutes some evidence of demonstrated need;

total project cost that the corporation is being asked to finance. No project
loan shall exceed:
(i) for industrial
development assistance loans, 50 percent of total project costs, from all
sources, or $750,000, whichever is less; or
(ii) for child-care facility assistance
loans, 60 percent of total project costs, from all sources, or $250,000,
whichever is less;
(6)
the ability of the applicant to carry out the project in a manner consistent
with the program;
(7) the size of
the applicant's equity contribution. As required by the statutory findings, an
applicant's equity contribution to a project must be at least 10 percent of the
total project cost;
(8) the
financial circumstances of the company involved; and

community.
(b) The criteria specified in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of this section shall not be applied with respect to proposals for child-care facility assistance.
