(a) A contractor may transfer up to 10% of project funds among budgeted line items, pending written approval of the executive director. Budget transfers must be within the scope of the contract and the total project budget, be beneficial to the achievement of project objectives, and be a more effective use of state dollars. (b) The executive director is authorized to amend a project contract's work plan, staffing pattern, or budget as long as the changes are within the total budget and general scope of work of the contract. (c) A contractor seeking to increase the contract budget or scope of work may file a request with the council. A request shall be submitted to the executive director with a justification for the change. The executive director shall review the request and make a recommendation to the council. The council's decision to approve or deny the request is final.
