2012 DiSTRiCT DiRECToRy

The ten Planning and Development Districts in Mississippi were created by local governments in the late 1960s in an attempt to address problems and issues on a multijurisdictional basis. In creating these organizations, technical assistance was provided by the then Office of Federal-State Programs under the administration of Governor John Bell Williams. There also were federal matching grant incentives to the Districts, as well as to the local govern-ments, if they met and maintained certain eligibility criteria, especially in the area of economic development. In 1971, in an at-tempt to standardize regional economic development and planning boundaries, Governor Williams issued Executive Order 81 designating the Planning and Development Districts as Mississippi’s official sub-state regions. This order also designated the Districts as the agencies to provide project notification and review under the U.S. Of-fice of Management and Budget Circular A-95, thus insuring that federally funded projects were in accord with local plans and did not produce duplication. The Planning and Development Districts still play the same basic role, but they are governed by Federal Executive Order 12371 rather than Budget Circular A-95.

organization Each Planning and Development District

is an independent organization governed by a Board of Directors appointed by local government officials. The Governing Board of the District is composed of members from each county who are appointed by the respective county boards of supervisors, elected county officials, business or indus-trial leaders, and representatives of the minority community. Other members may be mayors or other local elected officials. Most Districts operate through an active committee system which may involve many other persons, not necessarily members of the Board of Directors. The Districts are managed by an Executive Director who is responsible to the Board of Directors, and the Districts are staffed not only by administrative and clerical personnel, but also by specialists in such areas as plan-ning, economic development, community development, job training, social services, transportation, data processing, and geron-tology.

Programs and ServicesSince each District represents a distinctly

different region of the state, its activities, projects, and programs are somewhat dif-ferent. There are, however, many common functions provided in a very similar manner by each District.

ECoNoMiC DEvEloPMENT One of the principal functions of each Planning and Development District is economic development. Each District is designated by either the Economic Devel-opment Administration of the Department of Commerce or the Appalachian Regional Commission as the federally recognized organization to perform economic develop-ment, planning, and other related functions.

The Rural Development Administration is another major source of economic development assistance and most recently, the Delta Regional Author-ity was created using the same sub-state structure. Unlike some organizations which view economic de-velopment in a limited or specific manner, the Dis-tricts attempt to promote long-term job creation in the broadest sense. Each District develops annually a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy which not only is required by state law (see the Statewide Economic Develop-ment and Planning Act of 1987), but is es-sential in maintaining eligibility for various federally funded programs. These programs primarily aid local communities with such public facilities as streets, water and sewer systems, and other infrastructure necessary to promote business and industrial growth. The vast majority of industrial parks in this state were developed with some form of federal assistance provided through Plan-ning and Development Districts. Maintain-ing eligibility for funding also provides an opportunity to receive technical assistance grants and various types of loan programs. While they may vary from region to re-gion, there are numerous other economic development activities provided by the Districts. For example, the Districts provide statistical and economic information and analysis to potential business and industrial ventures. They also furnish information and assistance to cities and counties to aid them in being competitive and in building capac-ity so that they can assist with economic growth. The Planning and Development Districts were the first organizations in Mis-sissippi to integrate geographic information systems into their routine data management and mapping procedures.

loAN PRoGRAMS All Districts have an active Revolving

Loan Program. This program consists of grants, made to the Districts through a vari-

ety of federal agencies, to be loaned (usually in conjunction with other public or private financing) to businesses and industries to help in start ups or expansions. These loans are made at very attractive rates and when they are repaid, the funds are reloaned to other businesses for commercial and/or in-dustrial development activities. The money, therefore, stays in the area and continues to be a very viable economic development tool. Another loan program available to the Planning and Development Districts is the Small Business Administration 504 Loan Program. Each district, acting as a Certified Development Company or acting through another Certified Development Company, is authorized to make loans (for a period of time not to exceed 20 years) to small busi-nesses for land, building, and other fixed as-sets. These loans also are designed to create jobs and to stimulate business growth and are made in conjunction with private lend-ing institutions which assume responsibility for approximately half the amount loaned. These loans have fixed and attractive rates, and the District’s portion is guaranteed by the Small Business Administration in the event of default. Other loan programs avail-able through the State of Mississippi include the Mississippi Minority Business Enterprise Loan Program and the Mississippi Small Busi-ness Assistance Loan Program. The former is specifically for minority owned businesses, including females, and the latter is for any Mississippi owned small business.

CoMMuNiTy DEvEloPMENT Community development and govern-mental management are additional areas 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 coun-ties 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 sometimes assist communities with loans and grants through the USDA Rural Develoment Administration, with the development of parks through the Depart-ment of Interior and with small grants to rural volunteer fire departments.

TEChNiCAl ASSiSTANCE In addition to providing federal and state financial aid for community development, the Districts offer varying types of techni-cal assistance to help governments provide better management. Aid is available in such areas as personnel administration, financial management, budgeting, capital improve-ments, and codification of ordinances. Many Districts have extensive computer capabilities which they use to assist with the redistricting of political subdivisions. Also, computer mapping and geographic informa-tion systems are provided in some areas. Certain Districts have extensive involve-ment with high technology communication systems, which further expand computer networks. If a District does not have the specific expertise on staff, it can link its local community with the proper person in state or federal government, or the District might possibly work with another District in a joint venture.

PlANNiNG ASSiSTANCE In varying capacities, the Districts provide communities with local and regional plan-ning assistance. Maintenance of a regional planning process is a federal requirement for some programs, and the Districts maintain this process to insure eligibility to their local areas. Certain areas of the state are more active in planning and growth management than other areas, and the Districts normally reflect the feelings of their communities regarding District involvement in these ac-tivities. For example, in metropolitan areas which receive large amounts of federal fund-ing for transportation, a metropolitan plan-ning process is required. In these areas, the District administers this process and requires that all state and federal construction dollars be expended in accordance with the plans developed by the District and approved by the local governments representing the area. Another example of a District’s involve-ment in local planning is the preparation of land use plans for cities and counties. Many districts prepare and administer zon-ing ordinances and subdivision regulations for their various communities. In addition, they assist with street naming and property numbering, now required by state law.

The futureActivities of the Districts have changed

significantly over the past four decades and these changes are expected to continue as Districts reflect the needs and issues of their respective regions. The future of the PDDs appears bright, for they possess both flexibility and diversity. The Districts use business practices in providing regional, governmental functions. This makes them very diverse organizations responsible for programs ranging from adult literacy to regional solid waste.

huMAN RESouRCE DEvEloPMENT Another area in which the Districts are increasingly involved is human resource development. It is generally felt that improv-ing physical resources is of little value if it does not benefit human development. One of the major aspects of human resource de-velopment which has significant economic development implications is job training. Multi-county regions, as required as part of the Workforce Investment Act, include the Planning and Development Districts. The Districts are active in assessing the needs of their respective areas, developing annual training plans, and assisting in funding activi-ties to carry out these plans. This program is funded through the Department of Labor and administered through the Mississippi Department of Employment Security. The business and industrial community provides significant input to the local planning pro-cess. Another major program in this area relates to the elderly. Acting as the Area Agencies on Aging, the Districts provide an annual areawide plan which directs where federal dollars for the elderly are to be spent for the upcoming year. This plan is based upon a needs assessment, demographics, national priorities, and input from the pub-lic. Once the plan is adopted, it directs the comprehensive aging activities in its service area for the next year. Traditional activities funded under this plan include congregate and home delivered meals, information and referral services, long-term care programs, and elder abuse prevention services.

In recent years, major efforts have been made to keep the elderly active in their own homes. As a result, there are various support programs available to assist with this endeavor. These include homemaker and care service programs, adult day care, employment opportunities, transportation programs and case management, as well as other long-term community based activities. One of the most important aspects is the use of the federal Medicaid Waiver pro-gram for long-term community based care, which allows patients to stay in their homes versus entering a nursing home. Medicaid payments are used to secure these services for the home-bound patient while saving money and providing a higher quality of life. Recognizing that it is not possible for all the elderly to remain in their homes, all Districts have ombudsman programs providing trained professionals who call on patients in nursing homes.
