If, however, the city does not have the results of its program evaluation by the end of the grant cycle, the final narrative report may be submitted no later than six months after the end of the grant cycle on June 30, 2015. (Note: The final request for reimbursement would still need to be submitted by March 15, 2015.) All Progress and Final Reports need to be signed by a city official. Signed reports may be scanned and emailed. Amendments: Formal amendments to grant ILAs are not necessary unless the city wishes to make significant changes to its scope of work and /or budget. In general, a significant change would be one in which the city wishes to add or delete a task from their scope of work. A minor change, such as moving dollars between tasks, would only require written notification, which may be submitted via e -mail. However, the city should contact the Division when considering changes to their scopes and budgets to determine if a formal amendment is needed.
