I really want to emphasize that, because as one member of this committee, my desire is to move in that direction; hence the reason I'm very excited about this process. It's to ultimately be proactive, not reactive, and to ensure that as municipalities throughout the country are putting forward their desires with respect to funding, that triple-bottom-line return is evident, which means economy, social, and environment, and to ensure therefore that they're not competing against each other within that process. It's to ensure that this community improvement growth plan is put in place, is disciplined, and is looking ahead to the new norm, and as well that when they're applying, it's based on those priorities that are established by that certain area of the country.
