[lstac] Rules on drawdowns

I spoke with Madison about this back in January/February when I started getting worried about access to funds and she said in practice no more than once per week is feasible for draw-down requests due to their staff capacity (I'm sure that hasn't improved). DC is not allowed by city gov rules to do any advances, we now submit a draw-down request every other week or so depending on our staff's time. I think before this year we were submitting the requests once every other month or even quarterly...

In the official award notification email from IMLS we received at the end of April, the included documents had a link to 2025 Grant Award Guidance<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/u10335282.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=u001.1k0kLoZQMNkeT3pVGMYRDXCX3qzLHgV17LWL5aNzRIjmlLZbO5XqKlkdUc57R9SgWCNJDTo7GVKkCQesG95jhtaYMNVBUX4oFc2ccdBeMLagUR3rA7OMt5cZT33-2FnMpVpz1T_obNbMfo6c-2FX92IlJNPN2G9WRz-2BDe62jXpQ0x-2BYOOXnDpqesLmuMk5qPZ8dqGiiFiPoOCScFOxiQoI6GFoUomVDXudirp5xVdHKp-2BaUkxq-2B48wXft7Txeli0Cdo6k5g5viadX2sAmzdBIxrmgVi2QlYXKK3Cu9-2BfuGMkASlMy-2FVk3GxcWcpeNWYghKxqteyQ15YCQovaarMwO1K3OU-2Fh-2FsA-3D-3D__;!!CPANwP4y!W-xkz5i3gvGJfwHdPW2HtzvnF6DNdjwwRRlbPctZHw4HbgWqDTjg-NmoqoT3Q-FFax2fKLtvfVwfpT5dTVAPt_6LAIq8bhs$>. That is where I've found the most complete information around requesting funds. There are several links in the requesting funds section that might be helpful but it's mostly how to.
We've never done an advance request but that is the other option besides a reimbursement for already expended funds.
I wasn't aware you could do more than one request per month!

Are there any drawdown guidelines posted anywhere? Is there an online location where it states clearly what guides one's drawdowns? Is it simply that one can only draw down reimbursements for already expended funds? Sorry for being so clueless here.
Best,
Chris

Can you direct me to rules and your official logic for proceeding this way?

Missouri began doing weekly drawdowns after the EO's. Prior to that we did two per month based on our normal payment schedule.
Thank you,

Hi folks,
I am usually not involved in any way with drawdowns but have been asked a question. Can anyone direct me to the bible on drawdown rules? Does anyone do weekly drawdowns?
Best,
Chris
