Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) The
			 distribution formula is specified in Section 25-10 of the Act. [30 ILCS
			 769]
b) It
			 is anticipated that the appropriation of funds from the Build Illinois Bond
			 Fund will be made available in multiple rounds as bonds are sold and funds
			 become available for this program. If for any reason the amount of funds
			 available in a given round is not sufficient to distribute the base grant
			 amounts or any FTE grant amounts as specified in Section 25-10 of the Act, the
			 Board shall release prorated shares to grantees along with an
			 explanation.
c) If, within 10 years
			 after the completion of any capital project for which a grant was made under
			 this program, the property ceases to meet the nonsectarian requirements of a
			 capital project as defined in this Part or the institution ceases to be an
			 independent college as defined in the Act and this Part, the grantee shall
			 refund to the State an amount determined as follows. Grant Funds Used for
			 Project ($)/120 (months) X Duration of Noncompliance (months) = Required Refund
			 ($). For purposes of this formula, the grant agreement shall define the scope
			 of the project upon which the refund is required.
d) The amount of funds available to each
			 institution that receives an award over the life of the program will be
			 estimated during the application phase. If any additional funds subsequently
			 become available for redistribution because an institution that received a
			 grant subsequently fails to meet the definition of independent college, or for
			 any other reason, the Board will redistribute these funds as provided in this
			 Section 1031.40 and Section 25-10 of the
			 Act.
