Fill in the application - (3) Documents

To receive your reimbursement, you will need to provide the following documentation:

1. Receipts/invoices. Invoices exceeding $500 may not be paid in cash. Valid receipts must meet the following criteria:

  • Must be legible
  • Include the applicant’s name
  • Include the address of the property
  • Include the contractor or vendor name and contact information
  • Include the date and itemized description of work complete

2. Proof of Payment is required, such as a deposited check, bank/credit card statement, Venmo/PayPal invoice, etc.

Note: All tax will be excluded from the total grant amount if non-grant eligible items are included in the receipt. Receipts with multiple items on them for non-grants items must be highlighted or marked to show the grant expense. For example, if your contractor does 3 tasks but only 1 was grant-related, then this must be detailed and clearly itemized.
