is the proposal that we've had for a little while which was to underground utilities, which i believe is in the neighborhood of 1.6 or 7 billion dollars. but undergrounding utilities across the city. the next slide gets a little more detail. what is in the pay as you go program. so, for the general fund i mentioned there are three sources we have control over. one is the cash that we put in every year. the other is the geo bond program and the other is the general fund debt program. so, the geo bond program, we made a commitment back in 2006 with the first capital plan to grow the amount that we set aside for [speaker not understood] by 10% a year. this year we've add today that. this new capital plan, we added to the policy to fund streets and reach, stay at a pci of 70. we will not reach it right way, but by the end of the capital plan, by 2023 we should be at a pci of 70 and should cost us less to maintain it, maintain streets at that level. which is considered a good level, i should say. it's not a great level, not a super high level, but we think a responsible one. if you look down on this list here, you can see that we've kind of outlined in red a little bit some of the tra
