External development requirements parallel and are met by preexisting local governance institutions
Evidence
The SJA project mandated institutional requirements that closely paralleled existing settlement governance structures, particularly in their demands for representative bodies, financial management systems, and collective labor arrangements. While the settlers necessarily complied with the bureaucratic requirements of establishing community associations and submitting financial and technical reports to access SJA funding, in all settlements they aggregated their existing settlement institutions to actually manage and implement the projects. — Jessica Carrick-Hagenbarth, Institutional Bricolage and Commoning…, 114
