Section 136-167-030 - Termination of approved project after RATA reimbursement(1) If a county terminates an uncompleted RATA funded project for which RATA reimbursement has been made, for other than an unanticipated scope change, and is prepared to repay the RATA for all RATA funds received, the county shall, by means of a letter signed by the chair of the board of county commissioners or the county executive as appropriate, inform the county road administration board of its termination of the project. The letter shall state the reasons for termination and commit to repaying all RATA funds received for the project. Upon acknowledgment of such termination by the county road administration board, the county shall repay the county road administration board for all RATA funds paid to the county on that project within 60 days of such acknowledgment. After receipt of the RATA repayment, the county road administration board will void the CRAB/county contract and allocate the RATA funds to other projects within the region.(2) If a county terminates an uncompleted RATA funded project for which RATA reimbursement has been made, for other than an unanticipated scope change, and does not want to be required to repay the county road administration board for all RATA funds received, a letter of request signed by the chair of the board of county commissioners or the county executive as appropriate must be sent to the county road administration board. The request must include:(a) An explanation of the reasons that the project will not proceed to completion;(b) A statement of the amount of RATA funds which the county does not want to repay;(c) An explanation of why the county believes full repayment should not be made; and(d) Agreement to provide supporting documentation for amounts the county does not want to repay. If the county road administration board grants the request, the county shall repay all RATA funds not exempted from repayment within 60 days of the county road administration board's action, the CRAB/county contract will be amended, and the remaining RATA funds will be allocated to other projects within the region. If the county road administration board denies the request, full repayment shall be made as provided in subsection (1) of this section.
