Goodrich Interim Planning Director Washington County CountyPlanning Office 80 West Baltimore Street Hagerstown, MD 21740 RE: FFY 2004 CLG Grant Award Dear Mr. Goodrich: Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr. Governor Michael S. Steele Lt. Governor Victor L. Hoskins Secretary Shawn S. Karimian Deputy Secretary I must regretfully report to you that Washington County's federal FY 2004 Certified Local Government grant proposal for Phase IV of the Rural Community Survey is not among those being funded this year. This year, the Maryland Historical Trust received ten requests from Certified Local Governments for grant assistance amounting to $155,278. Of these, five projects were approved to receive funding from the available pool of $59,263. As you know, the matching requirements of 60% federal moneys to 40% local match limit the extent to which we can stretch available funding. I hope that you will not be discouraged by the outcome of this year's grant award process and come back next year with another submittal. Should you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact Nicole Diehlmann, Administrator of Statewide Preservation Programs, at 410-514-7625 or diehlrnann@dhcd.state.md.us. Sincerely, J.
