(a) All funding is contingent upon the appropriation
of funds by the Texas Legislature and upon approval of a grant application
by the comptroller.
(b) If the comptroller makes an award, the comptroller
shall notify the applicant of the award decision and shall provide
a grant agreement to the applicant for signature if the grant agreement
was not already submitted as part of the application.
(c) All award decisions shall be made at the sole discretion
of the comptroller and are not appealable or subject to protest.
(d) A grant agreement shall require the comptroller
to disburse funds as soon as practicable and shall require funds to
be expended during the grant period except the agreement may provide
for the reimbursement of certain pre-award costs. Funds for purchases
are considered expended when the grant recipient is legally obligated
to expend the funds.
(e) Grant award payments are subject to Government
Code, §403.055 and §403.0551.
