The District and MSBA staff establish and document the project scope, budget, schedule, and MSBA financial participation to forward to the MSBA Board of Directors for their approval. Approval by the MSBA Board of Directors establishes the MSBA participation in the proposed project. 

Upon Board approval of a proposed project, the District and the MSBA may enter into a Project Scope and Budget Agreement that defines the project scope, budget, schedule, and potential MSBA participation in the project. Once the District secures community authorization and financial support, the MSBA and the District enter into a Project Funding Agreement, which also defines the scope, budget and schedule for the project.
