DISCUSSION` <br /> A. Background <br /> Through Board Order 01-12-12-11, the Board approved a list of projects to be <br /> funded by the County's CaPP program. Included in the approved list was a City <br /> of Eugene project, extending Oak Street from 5th Avenue to Willamette Street. <br /> . The Board assigned $325,000 to the project, scheduled for construction for <br /> FY02-03. <br /> The Board subsequently directed the County Administrator not to execute an <br /> Intergovernmental Agreement that would have enabled County funding to be <br /> trarisferred to the City for the Oak Street project. <br /> This year's United Front lobbying package requested that our congressional <br /> delegation support an earmark project in the next Federal transportation act for <br /> transportation improvements in the vicinity of the new Federal courthouse. The <br /> attached "Transportation Solutions".pamphlet describes the improvements. <br /> . _ <br /> <br />
