(h) For construction/renovation or purchase projects only, proof of site control for a minimum of the grant period. Such proof may consist of (1) a current title report issued no more than 90 days prior to application showing ownership of the site; or (2) a valid, current, enforceable contingent purchase and sale agreement or option agreement between the Applicant and the owner of the subject property, including evidence that all extensions are in place to keep the agreement current through the grant award date.
(i) For construction/renovation or purchase projects only, evidence of the applicable discretionary use permits and approvals from federal, state, or local planning agencies for the proposed project.
(j) Agreement and Certification. The applicant shall agree and certify under penalty of perjury to the following terms and conditions as a requirement of receiving any grant funds. The agreement and certification shall be executed by the charter school's executive director, principal, chair of the board, or another authorized individual and shall be included in the application.
(1) Applicant may be required to return all or a portion of the grant funds including any investment earnings if the applicant fails to use the funds as approved. In cases where the grant will fund architect, design, or engineering fees, or land acquisition costs as part of a construction project, the applicant may be required to return all grant funds and any investment earnings if the Authority cannot determine the associated larger construction project has been completed based on timelines provided within the application. Grant funds shall only be used by the subgrantee in the manner described in the application, unless the Authority approves a change in writing pursuant to section 10186.
(2) Applicant agrees that any contractors or subcontractors on the project(s) assisted with these federal funds must be in compliance with Davis-Bacon and Related Acts. (40 U.S.C. § 3141, et seq.; 29 U.S.C. § 201, et seq.; 40 U.S.C. § 3701, et seq.; 40 U.S.C. § 3145; and 18 U.S.C. § 874) This section applies to the entire project, even when this grant funding is used to only fund a portion of the project and the other portions are paid for with other funding sources.
(3) The applicant's project and financial records are subject to audit and inspection by the Authority and the California State Auditor.
(4) Applicant has either disclosed all legal information as required in the LSQ, or has no legal information to disclose.
(5) Applicant will notify the Authority in writing at the time of project completion and will include evidence of project completion to the satisfaction of the Authority.
(6) Applicant will provide all documents and information required by law and meets all necessary requirements prior to the release of any funds.
(7) Applicant will immediately notify the Authority of any material change to the charter school's location, enrollment, student performance, charter status, or financial condition.
(8) For all construction, renovation, or purchase projects, a copy of the executed construction contracts and all required permits must be submitted to the Authority no later than one year from the award date and prior to any disbursements. Failure to comply shall result in the subgrantee being declared ineligible under the Program and the forfeited funds will immediately revert back to the Authority.
