Additionally, the program manager will review all submitted reports for timeliness and accuracy. Delinquencies and report contents will be addressed as needed.

ICJI staff will conduct an initial screening of the proposal to check for completeness of the application, as well as a risk assessment for all applicants. Funding awards will be determined based on several factors including: school district size, fleet size or number of school buses in use, and the funding requested/spent over the last two years. Eligible applications will be recommended for funding and presented to the Traffic Safety Division Director and ICJI Executive Director for consideration.

Incomplete and/or late applications will not be considered for review.
