(a) The Commission or its designees will make decisions
on applications for funding through the use of objective tools and
comparative analysis. The Commission or its designees will first determine
whether the applicant is eligible for funds in accordance with §173.101
of this chapter (relating to Applicability) and §173.201 of this
chapter (relating to Eligibility).
(b) All funding decisions rest completely within the
discretionary authority of the Commission or its designees. The receipt
of an application for funding does not obligate the Commission to
award funding, and the Commission may make grant awards that partially
fund budget items or programmatic elements in grant applications.
(c) Making a grant award based on an application does
not obligate the Commission to give any subsequent applications priority
consideration or to obligate the Commission to make any additional,
supplemental, continuing, or other award.
(d) Commission decisions regarding funding are subject
to the availability of funds.
