Attachment 3 provides a listing of the projects in which <br /> new or revised capital ordinances are necessary.

The County is committing a <br /> 30 percent loan-loss reserve to address any unpaid loans. <br /> • EMS Equipment-($88,020) The CIP is being reduced by this amount. Funds <br /> were originally included in the CIP for vehicles for the Immediate Response <br /> Vehicle(IRV) service delivery. These funds were to be used to pay for <br /> vehicles.
