Funds for this project are included in the 2014 for design and management, and 2018 Bond Programs for construction, inspection, and
management. Available resources within the General Fund will be used to provide interim financing for these expenses until debt is issued. Once
debt associated with this project is sold, bond proceeds will reimburse the General Fund in accordance with the statement expressing official
Intent to Reimburse that was adopted as part of the ordinance canvassing the bond election (Ordinance No. 21241-05-2014 and Ordinance No.
23209-05-2018). The 2018 Bond Program funding was included in the 2020-2024 Capital Improvement Plan for project PB0003. In order to
administratively track the spending of all funding sources in one project, an appropriation ordinance is needed to move appropriations from the
programmable project to the jointly funded static project. This action will update the 2020-2024 Capital Improvement Plan.
Construction for this project is expected to start approximately March 2020 and to be completed by approximately August 2021. This project will
have no impact on the Transportation and Public Works Department's annual operating budget when completed.
