Preliminary ranking shall be performed by the Grants Committee of the Board appointed by the Chairperson. In deciding the assignment of points for each eligible project, the Committee shall do so in a manner which provides a fair comparison of projects regardless of cost. More expensive projects shall not receive additional points just because they are larger in scale. Points shall be assigned with consideration of the anticipated effects of the project relative to its costs. The Committee may request assistance from the Executive Director to the extent necessary to evaluate each proposal.
