The amount of matching funds required from your city, <br />based on the grant award above, is $5,250 (this amount will deviate from the 20% of the total program <br />cost in cases where the community is including a low-income cost assistance option). The City of Little <br />Canada is one of 43 in the Twin Cities metro area accepted into this grant program. We are pleased to <br />report that all available grant funds have been awarded and that all applicants will receive an award. <br /> <br />The amount of funds requested totaled $1,683,575, while the amount of funds available is $1,400,000. <br />Because funds requested exceed funds available, a set of ranking factors and an objective scoring <br />system were used to distribute the available funds. <br /> <br /> <br />Below are some critical points to remember: <br />• New construction and new developments are not eligible <br />• A portion of each eligible grant activity’s cost must be paid by the property owner (unless <br />participating in the low-income cost assistance option) <br />• Funds are for rebates or grants only; consulting and city staff time are ineligible <br />• Grant recipients must display the Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment logo and the <br />Metropolitan Council logo on program-related web pages and paper communications <br />• Funds must be spent down by June 30, 2028 (municipalities and Met Council will work together to <br />monitor spending and adjust/reallocate funds as needed) <br />• Grant activities on municipal properties must supplement and not supplant dedicated municipal <br />funding sources <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />The Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment is available here: https://www.legacy.mn.gov/download- <br />legacy-logo <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />To obtain electronic and print versions of the Metropolitan Council logo, please contact me at <br />henry.mccarthy@metc.state.mn.us. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
