Cities and counties which have been "certified" by the Utah State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and the National Park Service are eligible to apply for grants. Certification includes passing an approved historic preservation ordinance and appointing a historic preservation commission. The SHPO assists local governments in meeting certification requirements. There are currently over 89 Certified Local Governments in Utah. What is the Local Government's Responsibility? Local governments are required to match the grant amount on a 50/50 basis with local funds, donations, and services. They are also required to maintain adequate financial and administrative records. This is usually done by volunteer members of the local historic preservation commission, though some local governments assign a paid employee to assist with the grant management. When are Grants Awarded and How Much Can a Community Expect to Receive? Grant applications are sent out in January and must be completed and returned by mid-February. The 16-month grant period runs from April through July of the following year. CLGs may have only one grant at a time, so they are limited to applying only every other year. Most grants are in the $3,000 to $6,000 range; the local government's ability to match the grant is usually a limiting factor. If the proposed activities are eligible, it is almost certain they will receive funding http://www.government-grant.biz/UT-government-grants.html 44BBEE0E-DB6C-4540-A0CB-F8F7B50A643A Thu, 15 Mar 2007 01:03:45 -1000
