1. The Commission on Behavioral Health shall advise the Administrator of the Division concerning the award of grants from the Account for Aid for Victims of Domestic Violence.
2. The Administrator of the Division shall give priority to those applications for grants from the Account for Aid for Victims of Domestic Violence submitted by organizations which offer the broadest range of services for the least cost within one or more counties. The Administrator shall not approve the use of money from a grant to acquire any buildings.
3. The Administrator of the Division has the final authority to approve or deny an application for a grant. The Administrator shall notify each applicant in writing of the action taken on its application within 45 days after the deadline for filing the application.
4. In determining the amount of money to be allocated for grants, the Administrator of the Division shall use the following formula:
(a) A basic allocation of $7,000 must be made for each county whose population is less than 100,000. For counties whose population is 100,000 or more, the basic allocation is $35,000. These allocations must be increased or decreased for each fiscal year ending after June 30, 1990, by the same percentage that the amount deposited in the account during the preceding fiscal year, pursuant to NRS 122.060, is greater or less than the sum of $791,000.
(b) Any additional revenue available in the account must be allocated to grants, on a per capita basis, for all counties whose population is 20,000 or more.
(c) Money remaining in the account after disbursement of grants does not revert and may be awarded in a subsequent year.
