Each <br />year, the Board provides consent for staff to prepare the application <br />during the application period. The release of the application and the due <br />date for submittal appear to be closer each year, so it is necessary to <br />request permission to prepare the application prior to having the actual <br />application in hand. <br />This is a non - competitive program. Applicants do not determine the <br />amount of the funding request, the funding is determined by state <br />formulas. The Weatherization and Heating and Air Repair and <br />Replacement grants are tied together and must be accepted as a <br />package. Qualification for these programs is income -based with a housing <br />qualification component as well. The two programs together provide <br />energy efficiency improvements and heating and air repairs and <br />replacement. <br />REQUESTED ACTION: <br />Motion to authorize staff to make application during the application period <br />and authorize the Chairman to sign the application. <br />EXPECTED LENGTH OF PRESENTATION: <br />SUBMITTED BY: <br />F -4 Page 65 <br />
