060-32 Wyo. Code R. §§ 32-5 - Application and Consensus List Procedures

(a) Applications, Consensus Lists and Timing. Applications from eligible applicants for consideration for project funding are initially submitted locally into the county consensus list process in the county where the project is situated. For projects involving more than one county, applications are initially submitted into the county consensus list process in each of the project-affected counties. In reviewing applications the board of county commissioners and the governing bodies of the cities and towns within that county that comprise at least seventy percent (70%) of the incorporated population shall certify to the Board that they have reached agreement on the projects for which the funds will be used. Certified county consensus lists and supporting documentation must be submitted to the Office at least thirty-five (35) calendar days prior to any regular or special meeting of the Board. Applicants must cure any deficiencies in their application(s) (incomplete application) no later than twenty-one (21) calendar days before any scheduled meeting of the Board.

The certified consensus list that the board of county commissioners submits to the Office for Board action shall consist of the following:

(i) A joint resolution, on a form provided by the Office, certifying that the county commission and at least seventy percent (70%) of the incorporated population of the respective county have reached agreement on the project(s) to be funded under this chapter (priority list). The resolution shall list each project individually to be funded under this chapter. The resolution must also indicate the grant amount requested for each project and the percentage of the total project to be funded with a grant under this chapter. The resolution must not exceed the total amount allocated for the county.

(ii) The resolution shall include a list of other eligible project(s) that have been certified and can be substituted in the event that a project on the approved priority list project(s) cannot proceed (substitution list).

(1) Changes to the priority list or substitution list must be submitted on a new joint resolution, on a form provided by the office and signed by all the representatives that signed the original resolution. This includes moving funding from a priority list project to a substitution list project. The prior approved project(s) must be listed on the priority list showing the awarded grant number, showing a decrease in the amount of grant funds requested for each project. The substitution list project (or new project) must include all of the information requested under Section 6(a)(i).

(iii) For each individual project, the applicant shall submit an "Application Cover Page" on a form provided by the Office.

(iv) For each individual project, the applicant shall submit a "Project Summary" form provided by the Office.

(b) Incomplete Applications. Incomplete applications shall not be presented to the Board for consideration.
