Accordingly, the <br />Board decided to revisit the full 10-year CIP update after the November bond and make <br />decisions at that time about how anticipated pay-as-you-go capital funds should be allocated <br />among the various proposed projects through FY 2010-11. <br />It should be noted that both school boards reviewed and approved in early 2001 the' project <br />allocations of the pay-as-you-go capital funds that they are projected to receive for the next 10 <br />fiscal years, in accordance with the BOCC's adopted Capital Funding Policy. Spreadsheets <br />summarizing the Board of Education respective CIP project allocations are included as <br />attachments to this abstract. Full copies of the schools' requested CIP documents (previously <br />distributed) will be available for BOCC reference at this budget work session, if needed. The <br />Board noted the importance of having a 10-year CIP in place as the basis for schaal impact <br />fees. The 10-year CIP approved by the Board in June 2000 will remain in effect, with the <br />interim CIP that the Board will approve in June 2001 representing an update now to just the <br />next year of the current plan. <br />As requested by the BOCC, the interim CIP documents reflects all requests identified by County <br />departments for consideration to receive pay-as-you-go funding in 2001-02 and/or subsequent <br />
