What happens if a project receives a state appropriation through the Commission but has not yet raised the required local match?
A. While the Commission encourages project sponsors to have local funding sources in place, it is not required prior to the appropriation. State law, however, does require the Commission to confirm community support in the form of a local match before it can expend state funds. In the meantime, while the local sponsor raises the local match, the state funds remain designated for the project for which they were appropriated. In some cases, the funds may be re-appropriated over future biennia. Also, please keep in mind that prior to the expenditure of state funds, project sponsors must demonstrate that they possess adequate funding to fully fund project construction and have an open, operable facility.
