Fiscal Note
The 2020 Adopted Capital Budget appropriated $12.9 million in Metro supported general obligation borrowing to purchase land for Metro’s Satellite Bus Facility project. Resolution 64017 enacted March 3, 2021 added an additional $7.0 million in federal grant funding and changed the existing borrowing authority on the project to be general fund supported general obligation borrowing.
The proposed resolution amends the 2021 Capital Budget to add an additional $3.7 million in previously awarded federal funding to the Satellite Bus Facility project. Metro had planned to use this $3.7 million in unused federal awards towards minor rennovations of the facility. This resolution instead applies these federal funds to the purchase of the facility by combining them with the $7 million in federal funding already appropriated through Resolution 64017. Total funding for the Satellite Bus Facility project will be $23,566,990 ($12,893,000 city general obligation borrowing and $10,673,990 federal funds).
