The authority shall adopt rules pursuant to chapter 17A to implement sections 16.141 and 16.142. The rules shall provide for additional objective criteria for the ranking of applications for grants. Not less than fifty percent weight shall be given to financial need, giving appropriate allowance to such factors as legal and economic capacity to incur debt, local tax levels, local effort, costs of vital services including sewer and water, unmet needs for basic services, per capita income, and the extent to which a project is calculated to improve the conditions which result in greater financial need. No grant shall be for less than ten percent or more than thirty percent of the reasonable cost of a project. The rules shall not impose restrictions on local costs in addition to chapter 384, division VI.
