Award Process

Award Process. Upon GCRF funds being appropriated by the legislature, MDA will request project information for all appropriated projects. Once a completed project information packet is received and approved by MDA, a binding grant agreement will be executed between the Mississippi Development Authority and the recipient for the specific amount awarded and for the particular activity appropriated by the Legislature. Construction may not begin prior to an effective grant award date. Any expenses incurred before January 1 of the year a project is first appropriated will not be reimbursed by MDA.
