ANALYSIS: According to the MPO's adopted 2025 Long Range Transportation Plan, a number of roadway improvements will be needed to accommodate the growth projected through 2025. Federal money is one source of funding those improvements. Even on non -SHS roadways where the County must pay a portion of the match, the County receives the benefit of 87.5 percent federallstate funding for a project. With 16`h/17`h Street, the County's share of the roadway design match is $103,125.00. The source of this match will be the Traffic Impact Fee District 5 fund. There are sufficient funds in that account to provide the required match. In the future, the County will be required to pay its share of the match costs for subsequent project phases As programmed, the right-of-way phase is scheduled for FY 2002/03, and the construction phase is scheduled for FY 2004/05. Prior to the commencement of these phases, the attached JPA will need to be amended to reflect the additional County match.
