10) Committee Business - Transportation Committee

10.A) The Planning Director recommends a general fund supplemental appropriation for $464,788.65. This amount represents a budget shortfall on the Renaissance Drive project. If staff is unsuccessful in securing additional funding from VDOT, the total additional cost to the County is expected to be $464,788.65. Depending upon the level of success in securing additional revenue-sharing funds, the actual additional cost to the County could be as low as $17,643.84. A motion supporting the appropriation at the Transportation Committee failed on a tie vote.
