Grant MOU Procedures

To keep the grant process running smoothly and ensure timely approval by the County Commissioners, we kindly ask for your prompt attention to the following steps regarding your MOU:

MOUs are typically sent out the week following the grant meeting.
Once received, please review the document for accuracy, sign, and return it as soon as possible.
Be sure to return the entire MOU—not just the signature page.
If someone other than you should be signing the agreement, please notify us at info@visitgrandcounty.com so we can revise the document accordingly.
Please note that MOUs must remain unchanged, as they are standardized by the county.
If your signed MOU is not received within four (4) days, your grant request may be deferred to the next grant cycle.

We appreciate your attention to these details and your partnership in making this process efficient for everyone involved.

I agree to the privacy policy and consent to receiving emails from Grand County. I understand that my information will be collected and used for the sake of communication regarding this grant request. I understand I may unsubscribe at any time. GDPR FAQs
