Preliminary Draft 2017 Budget – Combined
Emerging Issues for 2017-2022
1. Interim SWIF projects added to CIP following based
on February 2016 Board resolution
2. Lower Green River Corridor Plan and Environmental
Impact Statement added to capital project list
3. Prepare for 2018 King County Flood Hazard
Management Plan Update
Policy Question: Flood Damage Repairs
How can the District respond to critical flood damage
repairs without slowing progress on other projects and
programs?
Options might include additional reliance on other
agencies (such as King County Roads Services
Division or other jurisdictions), staff positions to back-
fill work while repairs are completed, on-call
consultant and contractor resources, or deferring
other work program products.
Policy Question: Fund Balance Reserve
Should project expenditures in later years of the
capital program be deferred to ensure that the
minimum cash balance target of $8 million is achieved
throughout the 6-year planning window?
Or is it sufficient to monitor and adjust in future years
if necessary to maintain the required fund balance?
Policy Question: Non-Structural Mitigation
As part of the 2017 budget process we are seeking
input on how to prioritize mitigation of the remaining
420 structures that have been identified, and also on
the appropriate timeframe to implement this body of
work.
What is the appropriate pace of implementation for
non-structural flood mitigation work? If the pace of
implementation were increased from 10-12 per year,
what other milestones should be deferred?
Questions?
