Mayor’s
Faith Based
and Community
Matching Grants
Grant
Notification & Awards Process
The
entire grant review and approval process takes approximately 45 days. City staff
from the Office of Neighborhood & Community Affairs review each application to
determine eligibility, completeness and accuracy. A
selection committee, comprised of City staff, previous awardees and/or community
partners review the grant applications and score them using the selection
criteria outlined. Qualified applicants will be required to make a 10 minute
oral presentation to the grant selection committee in March 2008.
Selection committee recommendations are forwarded to the Mayor for review and
approval. The
Mayor and City Council then vote to approve the recommendations, thereby
approving the grant funds at a City Council meeting.
The Office of the Neighborhood & Community Affairs will
notify each grant applicant of the selection committee’s decision in writing
during the month of April 2008. The
nonprofit organization and neighborhood organization will then receive a grant
agreement from the City, which must be signed, notarized and returned to the
Office of Neighborhood & Community Affairs so that the grant agreements can be
executed by City Council.
