29 Capital Status Review Fixed-Route/Shared Ride: Decade of Needs for both FR and SR. There will be added projects- particularly as we move further into the LDP and the Township has the Public Sewer connections complete (wash bay refurbishment). MCTA generally seeks 5311 funding at 80% with the remainder using 1517. See attached pdf for detail of balances currently available (Bonds/1517)for future projects. We hope to move the work done to this point forward regarding VanPooling- this will take additional coordination to prepare grant requests/prepare a plan. We have had history in this arena since 2004. 29
