Current through Vol. 42, No. 3, October 15, 2024

Section 75:50-3-3 - Maximum grant awards

(a) The amount of a grant award is determined solely in the discretion of the Board. The Board is not required to fund a grant in the amount requested by the Applicant. Maximum grant awards are based on an applicant's population or enrollment and will fall into one of three respective tiers, with Tier 1 being for the smallest in population or enrollment and Tier 3 being the largest in population or enrollment.

(b) Applicant counties shall be eligible for grant award amounts as set forth in Appendix B.

(c) Applicant municipalities shall be eligible for grant award amounts as set forth in Appendix C.

(d) Applicant common education school districts shall be eligible for grant award amounts as set forth in Appendix D.

(e) Applicant technology school districts shall be eligible for grant award amounts as set forth in Appendix E.

(f) If two or more applicants submit a joint application as a collaborative effort or project, the joint effort or project(s) shall be eligible for grant award amounts as set forth in Appendix F.

(g) The total population or enrollment for applicants that are public trusts solely benefiting one or more eligible participants shall be eligible based on the subdivision(s) they benefit. If a public trust benefits more than one type of political subdivision, the public trust will be eligible for maximum available funding under the tier appendix for which the majority of its beneficiary-political subdivisions are.

(h) A public trust's population or enrollment will be limited to the population or enrollment of the subdivision(s) that the public trust benefits as set forth in the declaration of trust or trust indenture.

(i) An interlocal cooperative formed under title 70 of the Oklahoma Statutes that is determined to be a local educational agency will be considered a school district, as that term is defined in 51 O.S. § 152.

(j) The Board reserves its discretion to award an amount greater than the proposed maximum available funding amounts in Appendices B-F under the following circumstances:

(1) An applicant demonstrates extraordinary need for opioid abatement funding resources, warranting a reasonable increase; or

(2) sufficient funds remain available for increasing award amounts as may be determined by the Board, subject to the Board's due diligence in evaluating applications.
