5:24 pm
there are different bucket list is a park's bucket. we depend on funds and plan on those. there is a planning press in the city that plans those funds coming inform and as i will mention in the 2020 bond program we have seen a delay in the funds manage inform there has been work to fill the gaps because it is slowed as we know development slowed. >> how do you access those funds? do you have to apply for them? or are they -- >> there is a process and i think i'm not sure the capitol planning folks may speak. there is a city committee and the development impact fees are assessd and come in at entitlement. there is a process of identifying how much the funds will be that is all estimates and the schedules are estimates
5:25 pm
as limp. a city mittee this works to plan that funding allocation. >> you can defer to another party. i understand that the development fees are updated based on investing. are you finding indexing is keeping up with costs giving supply chain and labor issues? >> i don't have an answer. i don't know if our capitol planning folks do? keep can get an answer if you you. that's not something i work in detail. we plan those funds but don't look in the how they are being i guess assessed.

5:28 pm
create in the 2006. learningly created in response to a long period of time under investment in the infrastructure and haphazard prop to how projects were fundd and what bonds were policed on the ballot. for context at the time, the pavement condition index for streets was the low 60 and he expected to drop further and the bond pass ajs rate was 50%. what the capitol plan provides is a fiscally constrained road map that lays out anticipates infrastructure investments the next decade. but it maintains flexibility to reserve firefighter to address unexpected needs. so -- a concern example is the cop reserve. the city has been able to tap top address covid short falls in the cash budget for the last several years.
5:29 pm
