Section 702.830 - Award of grants; selection of subgrantees; limitations concerning administrative expenses and amount of money awarded1. The Housing Division will award grants to entities that are selected by the Housing Division to be subgrantees.2. To be eligible to be selected as a subgrantee, an entity must be: (a) A community action agency; or(b) Another type of public or private nonprofit entity, including, without limitation, an agency or instrumentality of this State or of a political subdivision of this State.3. The Housing Division will select an entity to be a subgrantee only if the entity:(a) Files with the Housing Division an application to be a subgrantee;(b) Is approved by the Housing Division to provide weatherization assistance; and(c) Agrees to provide such weatherization assistance to eligible households within the county or other regional area designated by the Housing Division.4. In selecting entities to be subgrantees, the Housing Division will:(a) Make such selections based on public comment for the annual state plan; and(b) Give preference to entities that have administered or are administering an effective program of weatherization assistance pursuant to the provisions of NAC 702.600 to 702.870, inclusive, or pursuant to some other public or private program that provides weatherization assistance to low-income households. In determining whether an entity has administered or is administering an effective program of weatherization assistance for the purposes of this paragraph, the Housing Division will consider, without limitation:(1) The extent to which the entity achieved or is achieving its weatherization goals in a timely manner in administering its program of weatherization assistance;(2) The quality of the work performed by the entity; and(3) The total number of staff members of the entity and the qualifications and experience of those staff members.5. If an entity is selected to be a subgrantee, the entity may use not more than 10 percent of the money from its grant for its administrative expenses.6. For each county or other regional area designated by the Housing Division, the amount of money awarded to subgrantees for weatherization assistance will be proportional to the amount of money which is collected for the universal energy charge from retail customers located within that county or other regional area and which is made available for weatherization assistance pursuant to NRS 702.270 and NAC 702.600 to 702.870, inclusive.Nev.
