TC 10-28-13 Meeting Agenda
Item 1: Revenue Sharing Application
Attached, please find the draft application and map for Snowden Bridge Blvd from Route 11
North traveling eastward to a bridge over the CSX rail line and stopping just west of Mulburn
Road.
Previously, this project has awards of $1.3 million in economic development access funds
toward completion of this project. However, as we have continued to promote this project
changes in planning for the CSX rail line have led to a requirement of a significantly larger
bridge and associated increase in cost. In partnership with the developers of the Graystone
development, it was determined that the project could be better supported through the revenue
sharing program. It should be noted that if this application is successful, the economic
development access funding that has been previously been allocated toward this project would be
released since they cannot be used to match revenue sharing funds.
Staff is seeking a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors for the supporting resolution for
this application.
