This amendment will incorporate the recommendations of The Historical Museums Taskforce by it creating a two (2) year funding period, rather than annual one; it will provide three (3) levels of funding, rather than two (2) for the General Program Support category; and it will provide for alternate years in which museums requesting certain levels of funding will compete with each other for funding. This amendment will also provide that non-program-related operating costs, such as utilities, may not be included in the Grant Proposal Budget, and it clarifies the eligibility criteria for multidisciplinary museums who apply for funding. The amendment will require that grant deadlines be posted on the Division of Cultural Affairs' website, rather than in the Division's online newsletter.
