Salem, OR 97310 Re: 1992 Cost Responsibility Study Dear John, City of Eugene 858 Pearl Street Eugene, Oregon 97401 (503) 687-5262 Attached is the completed 1992 Cost Responsibility Study for the City of Eugene. I would like to add a note of explanation on how we forecast expen- ditures for Case B. If additional State Highway Fund apportionments were available in FY95, we would commit those resources primarily to our preservation program, and sec- ondarily to our reconstruction program. The table showing proposed distribu- tion of funds across programs reflect using 75% of new resources in the pres- ervation program and 25% of those resources for reconstruction. We are pres- ently estimating that we need an additional $2 million annually in preserva- tion to maintain our surface transportation system at existing conditions. Because our current maintenance, preservation and modernization activities reflect our overall system, there would be little change in how those activi- ties are provided if we had additional resources. That is, while preserva- tion activities would increase with an infusion of new revenue, the types of activities would not change significantly. For this reason, the percentage distribution of activities within each program type are projected to remain the same for both Case A and B. Finally, increased resources used for preservation and reconstruction would be concentrated on collectors, residential street and arterials, in that order. This reflects the more recent modernization of arterials that will have been completed through FY95. Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. I can be reached in Eugene at 687-5257. Sincerely, -~'~ ~~ Glen Svendsen Financial Analyst
