, Funded and Unfunded Programs. <br /> Because of the wide gap between transportation needs and available resources, transportation <br /> projects are separated into the Six-Year Funded Program and an Unfunded Program. The <br /> individual project costs listed in the Table of Unfunded Projects are only budget planning <br /> estimates, and are generally not based on detailed cost estimates. <br /> Listed in the section entitled "Unfunded Programs" is the unfunded portion of Preservation and <br /> Maintenance for the overall transportation system. Based on information developed for the <br /> Eugene Budget Committee Subcommittee on Transportation Financing and further analyzed <br /> in the Pavement Management System Report, the six-year unfunded portion for preservation <br /> and reconstruction is $31.8 million (this assumes a 10-year program funded at the rate of $5.3 <br /> million per year to address the City's $53 million backlog of preservation and reconstruction <br /> projects). <br /> Several ongoing programs that have been partially funded in prior CIPs have been included <br /> for funding in fiscal years 02 and 03 in this CIP, based on the recommendation of the Eugene <br /> Budget Committee. Because these programs are not currently eligible for System <br /> Development Funds or financing through property owner assessments, the primary source of <br /> funding for these program areas is a portion of the City's share of federal Surface <br /> Transportation Program (STP) funds. The programs shown to receive STP funds are: <br /> • Neighborhood Traffic Calming; <br /> • Sidewalk Access Ramps; <br /> • Street lighting {Residential); <br /> • Street Tree Stocking and Planting Program. <br /> The CIP includes a total of $120,000 in STP funding for these four programs in fiscal years 02 <br /> and 03 only. If the Budget Committee and City Council decide to allocate City road funds to <br /> the 02 or 03 capital budgets, road funds can be used as the source of the required local match <br /> (approximately 10.3 per cent). Since this decision will be made later during the budget review <br /> and adoption process, the CIP shows only the STP funds. If necessary these STP funds can be <br /> matched using road funds allocated to capital projects in prior years. <br /> ~ <br /> <br /> l <br /> , City of Eugene 2002-2007 Capital Improvement Program <br /> Page 59 <br /> _ _ _ _ <br /> <br />
