7000.18 Denial of grants and contracts.
(a) The board of trustees shall have the power to determine that an applicant for funding is not qualified to receive funding or is not the most meritorious of competing applicants, to deny or reduce future funding, or to terminate existing funding.
(b) In reaching a decision, the board of trustees shall take into consideration the amount of funds available for distribution, the continuity, competence and cost-effectiveness of the services provided, the provider's compliance with the terms and conditions of the grant and the requirements of these regulations, the standing of the recipient in the client community being served, the viability of an alternate provider of services and the disruption of services caused by a change in the identity of the provider. If a decision is made to terminate or deny refunding of a grant, the board of trustees may authorize temporary funding if necessary to enable a grant recipient to close or transfer current matters in a manner consistent with its professional responsibilities to its current clients. Where the board of trustees has funded an applicant for general operating support on a recurring basis, a decision to terminate funding or deny refunding will normally only be based on:
(1) a substantial failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the grant or the requirements and restrictions of these regulations;
(2) a substantial failure to use the grant to provide economical and effective legal assistance as measured by generally accepted professional standards and the provisions of these regulations; or
(3) a lack of sufficient funds available for distribution pursuant to these regulations.
(c) The provisions of subdivision (b) of this section shall not apply to any grant awards which the board of trustees designates, at the time such award is made, as one time in nature.
