While the funding plan as a whole was approved, the Board decided to change the individual project <br /> approval process. <br /> For projects that have a relatively small scope of work, the Board decided to approve the entire project <br /> ordinance at one time. For major projects, the Board elected to approve funding for individual <br /> components of the project rather than allocating a lump sum for the project. Major components include: <br /> Planning, architect, engineering <br /> Land acquisition and associated fees <br /> Construction <br /> Equipment & Furnishings <br /> Included in the approved CIP was the Pathways Elementary School Construction capital project. The <br /> project provides for construction of a new 600-student elementary school for the Orange County School <br /> System. <br />
