(2) a project term which shall commence on the date of the letter advising a project sponsor that its application has been selected for State assistance;

(3) performance standards, reporting requirements and timelines for initiating and completing project elements;

(4) that contracts and procurement policies and procedures of a municipality comply with sections 103 and 104-b of the General Municipal Law;

(5) that a not-for-profit corporation has policies for procuring quality goods and services in a way that assures prudent and economical use of public money in the best interests of the taxpayers.

(7) that the project be accessible in accordance with the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code and the Americans with Disabilities Act Guidelines (ADAAG-appendix A to 28 CFR part 36).
