Except for applications from state agencies, each application must include a resolution from the applicable governing body, such as the city council, county commissioners' court, school board, or board of directors, that contains the following:
- (1) authorization for the submission of the application to CJD that clearly identifies the project for which funding is requested;
- (2) a commitment to provide for any applicable cash match (if the applicant is not providing all of the matching funds, then the other participating entities, that are providing portions of any cash match, must also submit resolutions);
- (3) if the grantee organization chooses to designate an authorized official who is not the chief executive officer, the resolution must provide the designee with the power to accept, reject, or alter a grant; and
- (4) a written assurance that, in the event of loss or misuse of CJD funds, the governing body will return all funds to CJD. For nonprofit corporations, this statement must assure CJD that the governing body will secure a fidelity bond covering the full amount of CJD funds.
