Section 32-9l-6 - Grant payments(a) In order to receive a job incentive grant payment from the monies administratively segregated on its behalf, the applicant business shall submit to the Department a notice specifying the date upon which the expansion or renovation of the business facility was completed and the date upon which all of the employees filling the positions created by the expansion or renovation commenced work. The notice shall have attached a copy of the certificate of occupancy for the facility or documentation acceptable to the department from the project manager certifying the acquisition or leasing of the facility or the completion of the capital improvements being made thereto. The notice shall be certified by an authorized officer of the applicant business and shall confirm that the facility was expanded or renovated in accordance with the descriptions theretofore submitted to the Department or describe the manner in which the actual expansion or renovation differed from that approved by the Department in the issuance of its certificate of eligibility.(b) The notice shall be submitted to the Department not earlier than three months following the date on which the last employee hired as a result of the expansion or renovation actually commenced work. The notice shall state that each of the positions for which a job incentive grant is claimed was filled by a full-time employee for such three month period and is a position which qualifies for the award of a job incentive grant under Section 32-9l of the General Statutes and section 32-9l-3 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies as amended by section 2 of these regulations.(c) Upon receipt of a notice of completion of construction from an applicant business pursuant to section 32-9l-6(a), the Department shall review the certificate of eligibility issued to the business in the manner prescribed in section 32-9l-5(b) for the review of notifications as to the commencement of construction. The Department shall modify the certificate of eligibility to reflect the results of the expansion or renovation actually undertaken and completed by the business or any other material change in the facts relevant to the Department's determination of eligibility for a job incentive grant. The certificate of eligibility shall also be modified by the Department if it finds that the facts as stated therein are not in accordance with the facts as determined by the Commissioner or if the application or any information submitted to the Department by the applicant business failed to fully and fairly disclose facts relevant to the determination of eligibility of the business facility for a job incentive grant.(d) The Department may revoke a certificate of eligibility if it finds, after a hearing, that the business facility described therein fails in any respect to meet the eligibility requirements established pursuant to sections 32-9i to 32-9l inclusive of the General Statutes or for any reason which under section 32-9l-6(c) would warrant a modification of the certificate of eligibility.(e) Job incentive grant payments shall be made in an amount calculated by multiplying $500 or, in case of any business facility located in an enterprise zone designated pursuant to Section 32-70 of the statutes, and used primarily for manufacturing, processing, or assembling of raw materials or manufactured products or for research or industrial warehousing for which not less than one hundred fifty full-time employees or 30% of the full time employment positions created by the facility are held by (1) residents of such zone, or (2) residents of such municipality who, at the time of employment, were eligible for training under the federal comprehensive employment training act or any training program that replaces the comprehensive employment training act, $1500 times the number of jobs specified in the final certificate of eligibility, as modified by the Department in accordance with Section 32-9l-6(c). The Department shall advise the State Treasurer of its determination to make a job incentive grant payment, and shall direct the State Treasurer as custodian of the job incentive fund to disburse the amount of the approved grant to the business entitled to receive the grant.Conn.
