PUBLIC PARTICIPATION The public participation requirements described in Subpart B of the final Revenue Sharing Regulations continue in effect for Entitlement Period 17. If you believe your government qualifies for a waiver or alternative procedure as ex- plained below, you must request a "Public Participation Waiver Application Form" from the Office of Revenue Shar- ing.This waiver must be approved by the Office of Revenue Sharing before your government may appropriate Revenue Sharing funds. The waiver application does not replace the Statement of Assurances Certification Form.Even if you qualify for a waiver of the public participation requirements, you must file a Certification Form. A waiver or alternative procedure may be applicable to your government only if: • The cost of newspaper publication of the budget hearing notice, including the budget summary, will exceed 15 percent of entitlement funds in the proposed budget and an alternative method of publication will be used (see Sec. 51.13(c) of the Regulations); or • A newspaper publication for any one of the following is impractical or infeasible (for example: a few local subscribers or no newspaper available) and an alternative method of publication will be used to advertise: • Budget hearing notice • Notice of availability of the adopted budget • Notice of availability of Survey of Expenditures (Use Report) • Notice of availability of the Audit Reports.
