Summary
Commissioners discussed the Dayton Development Coalition'led PDAC process that vets and prioritizes regional submissions for state and federal funding across multiple committees, and urged jurisdictions to submit project requests.
During commissioner comments Sept. 4, Greene County commissioners urged local jurisdictions to participate in the regional PDAC process for state and federal funding and explained how the process works. Commissioners said the Dayton Development Coalition coordinates the effort, which collects project submissions and vets them through multiple committees before ranking regional priorities to send to state and federal legislators.
Commissioners said PDAC requires that a project be a regional priority ' serving more than a single community ' before it is included in submissions. Staff and commissioners noted committee categories include areas such as transportation, economic development and government services; the prioritized list is intended to help legislators understand regional priorities. Commissioners encouraged jurisdictions seeking state or federal grants to get submissions in to be considered.
No formal board action was required; the discussion occurred during commissioner comments and served as an informational briefing to jurisdictions and the public.
