(2) Thereafter, the Office shall conduct an initial review of all applications for completeness, accuracy, and applicant eligibility. Applications which meet these three criteria will be evaluated and scored pursuant to the Broadband Opportunity Program Scoring and Evaluation Criteria, incorporated by reference in Fl. Admin. Code R. 73C-50.001, and also available at the Office’s website, www.floridajobs.org/broadband.
(3) After the initial review of the application, the Office will notify the applicant, in writing, of any conditions that must be met to cure application deficiencies to complete the application. The Applicant will then be allowed 15 calendar days from the date on the notice to correct the deficiency or deficiencies identified in the notice and to resubmit the deficient portions of the application. The date of resubmission is the date a complete submission is received by the Office. After full, timely resubmission to cure any application deficiencies, the Office will review the resubmission following the same steps and procedure under this section, beginning at subsection (2) above.
(4) Applications received after the resubmission deadline or which do not correct the application deficiency or deficiencies may not be further evaluated. Whether or not a late application will be reviewed will be based on the total dollars requested by all Applicants from the Program for all eligible projects as compared to the total funding appropriated to the Office for the Program.
(5) Applications are considered complete when timely submitted to the Office with all questions on the Broadband Opportunity Program Grant Application answered and all required information and supporting documentation provided.
