2 nd Quarter Report: 1. The Division administrators have indicated that the state's present fiscal situation does not support the<br />

Comprehensive Resource Development <strong>Plan</strong>, developed at the request <strong>of</strong> the Division Director, proposes a broadening <strong>of</strong> job duties <strong>of</strong><br />
staff from another program area (Community Resource Specialist in Economic Support) to include the public relations and community<br />
outreach aspects <strong>of</strong> Resource Development staff. Method <strong>of</strong> measuring achievement: Comprehensive Resource Development <strong>Plan</strong><br />
completed.<br />
