The director may consult with local public officials to ensure the application reflects the
extent and magnitude of the damage and to reconcile any differences. The application is
not complete until the director receives all requested information.
(e) If the director returns an application with a request for more detailed information
or for correction of deficiencies, the applicant must submit all required information within
30 days of the applicant's receipt of the director's request. The applicant's failure to
provide the requested information in a timely manner without a reasonable explanation
may be cause for denial of the application.

to approve or deny the application, or the application is deemed approved. If the director
denies an application, the director must send a denial letter. If the director approves an

must notify the applicant of the steps necessary to obtain reimbursement of eligible
costs, including submission of invoices or other documentation substantiating the costs
submitted for reimbursement.
