<div>Dear All,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The 2013-14 Facility Grants have been posted here: <a href="http://www.ode.state.or.us/services/ssf/misc/facility-grants-for-2013-15-as-of-3-3-14-1640hrs.pdf"><font color="blue"><u>http://www.ode.state.or.us/services/ssf/misc/facility-grants-for-2013-15-as-of-3-3-14-1640hrs.pdf</u></font></a>.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The Facility Grant is $20 million for the 2013-15 biennium and will be prorated among qualified projects over the biennium. The estimated payout rate for the first half of the biennium is 5%. The estimated payout rate will be reconciled once all qualified
expenses for the biennium have been totaled. This will ensure that all projects receive the same rate for the biennium.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Those districts receiving a Facility Grant will receive the funding as part of their March 2014 SSF Payment.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you,</div>
<div>Michael</div>
