prioritize preservation of pavements and bridges and also for projects with significant <br /> outside funding. <br /> Summary of Draft CIP <br /> The 08-12 draft CIP once again reflects a projected decrease in funding for the five-year <br /> program compared to historic levels. As an overview, the 5-year total CIP program has <br /> decreased from $107 million in the 05-09 CIP, $59 million in the 06-10 CIP, and $48 <br /> million in the 07-11 CIP adopted in 2006. The draft 08-12 CIP recommended for ' <br /> release. today totals about $39 million in projects, with a net cost to the county of $34.6 <br /> million. <br /> The following is a summary of the funded projects in each category in this draft and <br /> some comments on changes from last year. Last year, the staff went through a process ' <br /> of beginning with a blank program and repopulating the project lists through a priority <br /> setting process. The priorities established last year have been carried forward with only <br /> a few modifications that will be described below. We have updated the priority matrix <br /> and project information sheets to reflect the current situation. <br /> General Construction <br /> There are six general construction projects totaling $15,7 million in this category. The <br /> largest, Bob Straub Parkway, has been carried forward from FY 06107 because of <br /> delays in approval of required permits for the project. The other five projects are all <br /> urban standards projects on county roads in cities (Eugene, Veneta, Creswell, and <br /> Junction City). Most of these include substantial local match from cities. <br /> Structures <br /> <br /> ,The structures, or bridge, category contains two bridge replacements and three <br /> rehabilitation projects. The three OTIA III bridge projects are funded 100% by the OTIA <br /> program. Two of these have been scaled back from replacement to rehabilitation. One <br /> of the Highway Bridge Repair and Replacement (HBRR) program bridges, Sharps <br /> Creek, mp 8.72, has been re-analyzed and determined to be ineligible for replacement <br /> funds. Lane County is proposing to substitute a rehabilitation project for Parvin Covered <br /> Bridge in the HBRR program. This proposal has not been approved. The HBRR <br /> program requires a 10.27% local match. <br /> PreservationlRehabilitation Funds <br /> Pavement preservation is proposed again to be funded at $3,000,000 per year for the <br /> CIP period, In addition, Lane County has applied for federal metropolitan area Surface <br /> Transportation Program Urban (STP-U) funds for an overlay project on Hayden Bridge <br /> Road. This funding has not been approved, but the funding decision will be made by <br /> the Metropolitan Policy Committee(MPC) prior to adoption ofthe CIP. County cost is <br /> shown and the total project cost is described in the footnotes. We have again allocated <br /> $300,000 in the second year of the program for both Bridge and Covered Bridge <br /> Rehabilitation needs yet to be identified. <br /> 2 <br /> <br />
