Director joined the planning staff. It seems only fair that they consider Work Programme efforts that would include all the things that the department wants to do that are up for funding consideration and right now everything the Commission Wants to do, plus everything the public wants to have included. And then take Public Comments before considering the options that will actually become funded.
