What is the size of the Countys Capital Budget and Capital Program?
A. The Capital Program is a six-year plan for the provision of the County’s long-term facility and infrastructure needs. The Capital Budget, the first year of that plan, is the only year actually appropriated. The plan receives a full update on a biennial cycle that coincides with the passage of the bond referendum every two years. A new cycle begins with FY 2010. The County’s FY 2010 Capital Budget is $756,092,234, but the combined funding for the two-year FY 2010 & FY 2011 cycle is $771,917,234. The entire Capital Program, covering fiscal years 2010 to 2015, totals $2,117,188,354.
