The Department of Natural Resources’ Administration of the Shade Tree Bonding Grants Program (June 26)

The Legislature established few specific requirements for how the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) should award Shade Tree Bonding Grants, resulting in the department using significant discretion to select grantees. Further, when making grant decisions, DNR’s grant review committees considered unscored criteria that DNR had not communicated to applicants, which led to some applicants not receiving grant funding in favor of applicants with lower overall scores.
