Who must pass the authorizing resolutions?
Resolutions must come from: a county board, city council, village board of trustees, town board, school board, Library board or a water or sewer authority board as the case may be. All cities and some counties are governed by their individual charters, in some cases, the chief executive or chief elected officer has the authority to apply for grants. However, the best policy for cities and counties is that a resolution is made by the legislative body.
