Site visit requirement for certain grant recipients

This bill requires state granting agencies to conduct unannounced, in-person site visits for grants exceeding $10,000 to monitor how funds are used. The law mandates at least one visit per grant and additional visits every 12 months for grants disbursed over a longer period, with exceptions only allowed for entire grant programs rather than individual cases. Granting agencies must also report on grant status whenever requested by the commissioner, and the commissioner retains authority to approve or deny exceptions to the site visit requirement. The changes directly affect state agencies that manage grant programs and the organizations receiving those grants.
