Advisory Council Members
The CBED Advisory Council reviews all requests for financial assistance (loans and grants) to assess whether the proposed community-based economic development activity or enterprise is likely to achieve the purposes of the CBED program. The Council makes recommendations to DBEDT regarding the appropriateness of the proposed activity or enterprise, and DBEDT then has final authority to approve or disapprove the financial assistance
