(a) An organization currently under contract by the Division to provide services shall be granted a preference in the subsequent fiscal year to have the contract renewed over other organizations applying for the same contract unless the select committee following a public hearing determines that the organization is no longer entitled to a preference because of any one of the following reasons:

(i) Lack of community support from other human service agencies both state and local, and the public in the service area.

(ii) Failure to provide acceptable services within the region.

(iii) Failure to provide services in a cost effective manner.

(iv) Failure to hire qualified staff.

(v) Failure to provide adequate board and administrative oversight of the program.

(vi) Misuse of funds.

(vii) Other reasons relating to the effectiveness of the services provided by the program and in the opinion of the committee affecting the care and well being of clients. The select committee shall outline such reasons in the findings of the committee submitted to the Administrator.

(b) If the select committee determines that the currently funded organization shall no longer be granted preference, the committee may recommend another applicant to the Administrator.

(c) The select committee shall submit to the Administrator its written findings and name of the recommended program. In cases where the select committee does not recommend the existing provider, the written findings must outline which criteria the review committee felt were not met and give the basis for this decision.
