Highlights
Destination Medical Center plans have opened a host of development opportunities in downtown Rochester, but how will potential developers connect with DMC funding?

However,
Why is it even necessary in the first place for such a story to explain what seems to be a 3 phase DMC funding request process?
3-phase process:
1. Concept Phase: meeting between a potential developer, EDA staff and city staff, followed by feasibility analyses and a pre-development meeting.
2. Application Phase: developer submits to both the city and EDA staff. During city and EDA review of the application, the city's normal development process would take place, including City Planning and Zoning Commission review, neighborhood meetings and department reviews.
3. Execution Phase: Approved by both the Rochester City Council and DMC Corp. board.
To quote the lyrics of Show Me from My Fair Lady: "Words! Words! Words! I’m so sick of words! I get words all day through; First from him, now from you! Is that all you blighters can do?"

Wouldn't it be crisper and clearer if DMC EDA and/or City Planning develop a website that provides the step by step project funding applications that square the above narrative with the DMC documentation of funding application as depicted in this diagram?
It is ironic that in a city that aspires to be high-tech and a city that employs some of the most talented technologists (engineers and programmers) that it wouldn't think of funding a simple workflow engine that supports the DMC project evaluation and approval process.

The website should be a tool for developers and investors to apply for DMC funding and to have interactive dialog with DMC staff to clarify on concepts and procedures. And the public can look up the funding and development status of each project.
Just Show Me, please.
