point. He was not comfortable recommending a further allocation for this project until Council has weighed in from a policy perspective. It was moved by Mr. Sullivan, seconded by Mayor Hosterman, to approve the proposed funding plan and its inclusion as part of the FY 2005106 mid-term CIP with the condition that staff provides Council with a funding plan for the Kottinger Creek Renovation project at the time the project specification and design are reviewed. Mr. Brozosky was comfortable with staff's recommendation. By approving the proposed funding plan, he did not believe it tied Council's hands. Ms. McGovern believed she was taking a leap of faith on each of the five projects. She was not certain that the bids would come in at the projected cost estimates. She asked what would occur if the bid for the Veterans Memorial Building were more than the project cost estimate? Mr. Bocian said staff would need to address the shortfall and as part of this funding plan, staff is recommending setting aside a reserve in the CIPR to address some of these issues. He believed that Mr. Brozosky was accurate in the sense that this funding plan addresses and provides Council and the members of the community interested in these projects a clear idea that there is funding to move forward. Mr. Fialho reminded Council that staff is actively pursuing federal grants for some of these projects including the Veterans Memorial Building, the Alviso Adobe Community Park project and the Vineyard Avenue Resurfacing project. If staff is successful in its attempts, the City is basically reimbursing itself and making more funding available for contingency or putting the money in the CIPR which can be reprogrammed for another project. Mr. Sullivan clarified that the funding plan was not contingent upon the $304,000 grant for the Kottinger Creek Restoration project. In response to an inquiry by Mr. Brozosky, Mr. Fialho said staff would provide a plan that the neighborhood and staff is proposing including available funding for the Kottinger Creek Restoration project. Staff will also identify options if Council wishes to build this project given the current existing funds available.
