Not sure why they say "OK'd" - they then go on to say the applications need to be reviewed.

If being "OK'd" is taking the money in the application process then it makes sense - $150 x 13,000 applicants is significant in my household.

Whatever they do I'm sure they will be dragging their feet to issue those permits.
