Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have questions on a couple of topics. My first question is in regard to capital projects that hamlets take on through community empowerment. In the past it was partial authority contracts or full authority contracts. I believe MACA as a department does not take on the actual construction of the capital infrastructure, but DPW does. So I assume that DPW is then the department that is responsible for passing this contract authority to the communities.
What I would like to know is, under that particular type of authority on a capital project, is the municipality responsible for obtaining all permits that are required?
