reviews the projects and assigns a value
to each. Projects may not start until
notification by the Grant’s Committee.

by March 31, 2014.
Timelines
We have had a difficult time getting final
reports on District Projects. By closing off
the projects at the end of March, we will
allow for final reports and new proposals
to be done. This will lead to a more
consistent flow of money.
