				additional information may be obtained, and shall specify the maximum number of
				Local Programs that may be designated for the year. The Division shall provide
				information regarding the application process at one or more regional
				pre-application workshops.
(2)
				Prior to announcement of the annual application cycle, available funding and
				staffing will be compared with Florida Main Street Program obligations to
				second year, third year and other Active Local Programs to determine the
				resources available to provide training and technical assistance to new Local
				Programs. Based on the results of this assessment, Florida Main Street staff
				will determine the maximum number of new Local Programs that can be
				accommodated for the coming year. Only Applicants meeting the requirements set
				forth in Rules  1A-36.005 and
