C.

a proposal is submitted to the commissioner by the applicant containing all of the elements described in part 9210.0825, subpart 1;

D.

the proposed project meets the criteria in part 9210.0825, subpart 3;

E.

the project is consistent with the goals in Minnesota Statutes, sections 115A.02 and 115D.02; and

F.

the grant awarded under this part makes up no more than 25 percent of the total federal grant award.

A match grant will not be finalized until the applicant has notified the commissioner in writing that the federal grant has been officially awarded. The notification must disclose the total dollar amount of the federal grant award and must include information verifying the existence of the federal grant award. Grant awards are contingent upon the commissioner and the grant recipient successfully entering into a grant agreement as specified in part 9210.0845.
