Definition:  A grant application is any request for funds to be received and/or administered by Tompkins County, made by a County employee on behalf of the County and/or using official County stationery or using his/her official County title.  A grant acceptance is an authorization to execute a contract (see Policy 01-10).

Policy of the Board of Representatives:

2.               Any grant acceptance must be treated as an authorization to execute a contract, and Policy 01-10 must be followed.
