There are, however, many common functions provided in a very similar manner by each District.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Community development is an additional area in which most Districts are very involved. The Community Development Block Grant Program is funded through the Department of Housing and Urban Development and administered by the Mississippi Develop- ment Authority. This is a very competitive program that funds various types of public facilities, economic development, and housing activities. Most Districts provide technical assistance to their cities and counties to help them select projects, prepare applications, and further document needs. Many Districts also are active at varying levels in actually administering projects and programs once they are funded. Moreover, the Districts PLANNING ASSISTANCE sometimes assist communities with loans In varying capacities, the Districts provide and grants through the USDA Rural Develop- communities with local and regional plan- ment Administration, with the development ning assistance.

Many Districts prepare and administer zoning ordinances and subdivision regulations for their various communities HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT Another area in which the Districts are increasingly involved is human resource development. It is generally felt that improving physical resources is of little value if it does not benefit human development. One of the major aspects of human resource development, which has significant economic development implications, is job training.
