Regional Plan: Capital Improvement Plan and Implementation
This phase of the project includes the ultimate planning document associated with the LRGV Regional EAP. There are six major elements to this phase:
- Identification of Projects
- Cost Estimates
- Prioritization and Ranking of Projects
- Identification of Potential Funding Sources
- Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Schedule
- Implementation
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________
1. Identification of Projects. Each team member will visit their assigned entities and obtain the following thru interview / discussion:
a. Develop list of issues and challenges during and resulting from Hurricanes Dolly and Ike.
b. Develop list and obtain copies of projects and/or studies.
c. Obtain copies of city and county design standards associated with each entity.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________
2. Cost Estimates. Each team member will review and/or develop cost estimates for each project (for current and future costs).
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________
3. Prioritization / Ranking. Each project shall be ranked utilizing the Project Identification / Ranking Form. Project ranking will be in groups: Small, Medium, and Large. The current Project Identification / Ranking Form includes: ProjID-Rank2010-9-22. At this time, the form is being reviewed to modify the following:
- Under the second goal group, incorporating points for area impacts compared to the local entity's tax base;
- Under the second goal group, incorporating points for recognizing if the project improves health, safety, and/or quality of life;
- Under the third goal group, reducing points to accomodate the two above to keep within a 100-point scoring system;
- Overall, thresholds are being developed for scoring criteria (i.e. -- what equates to 5 points, 7 points, 15 points, etc.).
