I would like to add that in addition to the need to set aside funds for the
NRP evaluation there is a couple of other reasons to redirect Phase I funds.
LCC had several NRP goals that were completed under budget, but there was
not enough remaining to do another project.  There were also goals that
simple were never realized, community lighting for example simply was not
allocated enough money to make the project viable.  There was also the issue
of program income, the LCC plan book and income return on loans.  All of
these dollars were redistributed at a public meeting last week.  It is true
that many of the dollars could be redistributed by the LCC board without a
public meeting, but the board wanted as much citizen participation and
transparency as possible.
