(1) develop and periodically update standard performance measures for each category of grants provided by the authority for use in assessing grantee success in achieving the purposes of this chapter; and

(A) the recovery rate of stolen motor vehicles;

(B) the clearance rate of:

(i) motor vehicle burglaries and thefts; and

(ii) fraud-related motor vehicle crimes; and

(C) the number of persons arrested for motor vehicle burglary and theft and fraud-related motor vehicle crime.

(c) The authority shall allocate grant funds primarily based on the number of motor vehicles stolen in, or the motor vehicle burglary or theft rate across, and the number of fraud-related motor vehicle crimes committed in the state rather than based on geographic distribution.
