The departments spending the money should speak to the community before they spend it. As for the governance of that money, it is important to make sure that the representative organizations in place are consulted. If money is being given to CMC, CMC must be required to work with the other organizations that engage in economic and community development. The same thing applies if money is given to RDEE: it is important to make sure they will work with CMC.
