Grant Program Reapplication Limits

Summary

The CRA has no rule stopping someone from reapplying for the same grant repeatedly — Anita Gibson's winning application originally dated to July 2021. The board wants a five-year wait for beautification grants and ten years for paint grants, with exceptions for things like a harsh winter that killed plants.
