Subp. 2.Grant allocations.The applications, other than those for a family planning hotline grant, must be ranked in order within each region from highest to lowest based on the criteria for award in part 4700.2300. The applications must be funded in rank order from highest to lowest until all available funds for the region are allocated.
Subp. 3.Funding awards.If the amount requested by any applicant is more than that reasonably required to provide the proposed services, or if the proposed services are not based on part 4700.2210 or 4700.2300, the commissioner must either deny funding or award less than the amount the applicant requested. When the commissioner decides to award less than requested, the applicant must submit a revised description of the target population, methodologies, budget, or budget justification as required by the commissioner to receive funding.
Subp. 4.Contingency funding.If any of the conditions in items A to D exist, the commissioner shall redistribute the funds according to this subpart.
A. If funds remain available in a region after all approvable applications are funded according to this part, the commissioner shall redistribute the funds to the other regions, proportional to their share of funding need, based upon the process stated in part 4700.2410, subpart 2. The redistributed funds shall be awarded according to subpart 2.B. Funds remaining available after all approvable applications are funded at the funding limit in subpart 1, and awarded according to subpart 2, will be proportionally distributed to all applicants with approvable applications. In order to receive additional funds, an applicant with an approvable application must submit a revised description of the target population, objectives, methodologies, budget, and budget justification to the commissioner within 60 days after receiving notice of the availability of additional funds.C. If the department funds for family planning special project grants are increased after awards have been made under part 4700.2410, subpart 1, or 4700.2420, subparts 2 to 4, funds must first be allocated to the family planning hotline grant recipient within the funding limits specified in part 4700.2410, subpart 1. Remaining funds must then be distributed to the regions proportional to their share of funding need as determined according to part 4700.2410, subpart 2, and awarded according to part 4700.2420, subparts 2 to 4.D. If department funds for family planning special project grants are reduced after awards have been made under this subpart or subpart 2 and part 4700.2410, subpart 1, all awards must be reduced proportionate to the department's reduction in these funds. A grant award recipient must submit a revised description of the target population, objectives, methodologies, budget, and budget justification to the commissioner within 60 days after receiving notice of reduced awards.Minn.
