shall be budgeted and expended in accordance with the provisions of
subsection B of this section for the purpose of preserving and
developing Oklahoma main streets.
B. In order to be considered for a grant, a Main Street shall
apply to the Oklahoma Department of Commerce. The application shall
be on a form prescribed by the Department of Commerce and shall
contain such information as may be required by the Department of
Commerce to determine if the applicant is qualified.
C. Except as otherwise provided by this section, in order to
qualify for the grant, the Main Street applying shall be required
to:
1. Be a designated and qualified Main Street by the Oklahoma
Main Street Program; and
2. Upon receiving the grant, the Main Street shall contract
with the Department of Commerce which will require a submission of
proof that the Main Street is still a designated Main Street and an
invoice to the Department of Commerce to be paid no earlier than
June 1 of any fiscal year in which there are funds to award the
grant.
D. If an awarded Main Street is no longer a designated Main
Street, they will be removed from the grant program and shall be

designated Main Streets will be reallocated evenly to the other

of the public peace, health or safety, an emergency is hereby
