(1) the total number of jobs expected to be created or retained;

(3) the demonstrated need for such assistance. Rejection of requested financing from private sources constitutes some evidence of demonstrated need;

(i) for industrial development assistance loans, 50 percent of total project costs, from all sources, or $750,000, whichever is less; or
(ii) for child-care facility assistance loans, 60 percent of total project costs, from all sources, or $250,000, whichever is less;
(6) the ability of the applicant to carry out the project in a manner consistent with the program;
(7) the size of the applicant's equity contribution. As required by the statutory findings, an applicant's equity contribution to a project must be at least 10 percent of the total project cost;
(8) the financial circumstances of the company involved; and
(9) the impact of the project on the local community.
