Summary
The purpose of this report is to request Council’s authority to commit 2015 expenditures for state-of-good-repair capital projects in advance of Council’s approval of Transportation Services’ 2015 Capital Budget and 2016-2024 Capital Plan, in order to advance the start of construction projects and achieve higher rates of capital delivery; and help realize more competitive off-season bids.
Specifically, approval is being sought for increases in 2015 cash flow commitments totalling $31.678 million for Transportation Services projects. This request will not increase or decrease the 2014 – 2023 Approved Capital Budget and Plan for Transportation Services in any year over the 10 year period.
