1. (a) TANEO may only provide grants to eligible businesses, nonprofit organizations, and governmental entities, including institutions of higher education.
2. (b) To be eligible for reimbursement of expenses, an applicant must provide sufficient documentation to support incurred expenses. The OOG, in its sole discretion, determines when an applicant has submitted sufficient documentation.
3. (c) An applicant for a grant under this chapter may receive financial assistance or incentives from a local, state, or federal source, but TANEO may not expend grant funds to reimburse expenses paid by a grant recipient or the grant recipient's project partner using financial assistance or incentives from the local, state, or federal source. TANEO, in its sole discretion, may terminate a grant agreement and a grantee must, at a minimum, return to the OOG the amount equal to the amount of funds the grantee received under the grant agreement.
