or for the exercise of any of the other powers conferred upon the corporation or its

subsidiaries, the board shall consult with the heads of the principal departments

of State government having responsibilities or conducting programs relevant to the

affected by, the operations of the corporation. c. In planning and carrying out projects pursuant to this act the corporation and

its subsidiaries shall endeavor to enlist the cooperation and assistance, on a volunteer

and training qualify them to advise on the design and coordination of aid and development

programs for the revitalization of urban centers, and upon the most efficient and

businesslike manner of managing and directing such programs.
