y <br /> SDC FUNDING ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES <br /> At Good Job Number time, prepare a narrative for the project describing the percentage of each of the <br /> system improvements (transportation, sanitary, and storm) which are to be funded through SDC. Be clear <br /> and specific when outlining the reasons why a project or a portion of a project is SDC eligible. This <br /> narrative will document the rationale far funding throughout the life of the project. <br /> TRANSPORTATION -Paving, Street Lights, Signals <br /> SDC Eligible: <br /> Basically, projects or portions of projects on arterials or collectors are eligible for SDC funding if the <br /> improvement is the result of present or future growth. Some projects may be a combination of <br /> reconstruction and capacity enhancement (e.g., 18th Avenue west of Chambers). If it is suspected that a <br /> project may be partially SDC eligible, contact Brant Williams or Les Lyle to determine potential eligibility. <br /> The rationale for Bogart/Bailey is provided below as an example: <br /> - A portion of the improvement is being constructed due to new development. The <br /> development may be in the immediate vicinity or may be within the larger area, but <br /> increased traffic voiume impacts this project and the infrastructure network must be <br /> expanded to support this growth. <br /> - We are building all or part of this improvement due to present or future growth. <br /> - Growth has occurred in the last three to five years and we are just now responding to the <br /> need. Construction may be delayed due to the time required to gather petition/poll letters, <br /> or to initiate the improvement (Terry Street, Goodpasture, Green Acres). <br /> NOT SDC Eligible: <br /> - The project addressed along-standing issue, and is not due to growth in the last three <br /> years or so. <br /> - The area is predominately developed and has been for more than approximately five <br /> years (Marshall Street). <br /> - It is not likely that there will be further development in the service area in the near future. <br /> - The predominant project goal is to bring the existing roadway up to City standards (e.g., <br /> unimproved local street). • <br /> - The project solves an existing or long-term operational problem (13th and Chambers turn <br /> lanes). <br /> SANITARY AND STORM <br /> Establishing sanitary and storm SDC eligibility is more clear-cut than transportation eligibility. Basically, <br /> extra capacity to serve new development is SDC eligible. Since developed areas are already served, <br /> virtually all extra capacity is installed due to growth and, therefore is SDC eligible. <br /> <br /> O:\FO RMS\P ROJ ECTDESIGN\SDC. FRM <br /> <br />
