FY 2009-10 Capital Project Ordinances On a number of occasions since October 2008, the Board has discussed the County and School FY 2009-19 Capital Investment Plan (CIP). Tonight, staff requests the Board approve capital project ordinances for School and County projects funded the first year of the Plan, FY 2009-10. FY 2009-10 funding for County projects is consistent with the FY 2009-19 County CIP Summary approved by the Board on May 5, 2009. FY 2009-10 funding for School projects is in line with information each Board of Education shared with Commissioners during the April 28, 2009 budget work session. Approving these ordinances tonight will enable County departments and both school districts to begin laying the groundwork so that work on the approved projects can begin as soon as the new fisca! year begins on July 1, 2009. This is especially important because both school districts have particular capital projects where work needs to occur during the early summer months when students are not in class. In order for work to begin immediately as school adjourns for summer break, school districts must have Commissioner approved capital project ordinances in place to award bids for the planned projects.
