Do not change GT regulations
 

This is a BAD idea. Guidelines need to come from the state, and the money has to be earmarked for G/T use. There is tremendous potential for abuse if it's left to localities to determine who is eligible, and even worse, in tight times (like the present), localities could use the funds for other purposes.
