Is submitting a Notice of Intent to Apply for a competitive grant to TEA required?
Unless otherwise stated in the RFA, the Notice of Intent to Apply is requested but not required. Failure to notify TEA of the intent to apply will not disqualify the applicant from submitting a competitive application unless otherwise stated in the RFA. However, authorizing statute may require, that prior to submission of an application, prospective applicants give notice of intent to submit an application to the affected community. Any such requirement will be specified in the applicable RFA or application package.
