Senior Budget and Finance Analyst Shah advised there will be $20 million of contributions from the General Fund over the four years which can be applied to any City project; and that there are 61 projects proposed over the four years across all categories. She reported 74.1o/o of the funds are earmarked for state of good repair projects to extend the life of the City's assets.

She reported there is $2.5 million budgeted for FY 21122 and $5 million for FY 22123. She confirmed roughly half of the $20.2 mitlion is set for those first two years. ln response to Councilmember Narum's inquiry, City Manager Fialho clarified master-planned projects not relying on restricted funds like Gas Tax and Measure B/BB funding draw first from the Miscellaneous General Fund's CIPR.
