The County will compile the ratings, rankings, and <br />recommendations along with the applications and submit them to a combined <br />county-wide LTAC work group which will be comprised of three members from <br />the LTAC of each participating municipality (or appointees if there is no LTAC) <br />for consideration. The County will act as Chair of the work group. After <br />submission: <br />a. The work group will hold a public meeting where it will provide an <br />opportunity for applicants to make a presentation before the work group <br />and answer any questions from work group members. <br />b. The work group will review the recommendations, deliberate publicly, and <br />make final recommendations based upon the master list. All decisions will <br />be made by simple majority vote. In the event of a tie vote, the application <br />or motion will be deemed to have been rejected or failed, respectively. <br />c. Meetings of the work group must comply with the Open Public Meetings <br />Act (Chapter 42.30 RCW), which includes public meeting notice and <br />member quorum requirements. <br /> <br />3) Legislative Decision. The County will submit the work group's final <br />recommendations for funding events and projects to each funding jurisdiction's <br />legislative body for final decision and action. If a legislative body does not approve <br />the work group's final recommendations, the legislative body must notify the chair <br />of the work group in writing with specific objections. The work group will <br />reconvene in a public meeting to reconsider the final recommendations. After <br />reconsideration, the county will re-submit the work group's final recommendation <br />to each funding jurisdictions for final decision and action. <br /> <br />4) Notification.

As with the other <br />coordination and streamlining, the County shall be the contracting agency. <br /> <br />F. Streamlined Reimbursement Process. Each municipality will contribute funds as <br />outlined in Section 2.C of the coordinated funding process. Such contributions will be totaled, and <br />all grant recipients will receive an award amount proportional to each municipality’s percentage <br />of the overall total contributed. The County will review and distribute funds to recipients in <br />accordance with the terms of the grant award requirements. The County will send a quarterly <br />invoice to each municipality, and each municipality will send a quarterly payment to the County. <br /> <br />G. Post-Activity Reports. Each grant recipient will comply with the post-activity <br />reporting requirements of RCW 67.28.1816(2)(c) and provide copies of the report to all <br />Municipalities.
