Information

Agenda Item Text:

Adopt Resolution 15-25 to amend the policy and procedure for the Public / Private Partnership Program for Cochise County road improvement, as described therein.

Background:

The Public / Private Partnership Program, created in 1994, enables citizens to financially participate to have a road upgraded to a chipseal surface. The current program applies to maintained and non-maintained roads at different contribution rates. However, due to decreasing resources the County can no longer sustain this level of public participation. As a result of two work sessions, it was determined to retain a modified version of the program. An amended PPP Policy and Procedure is enclosed for your review and below is a summary of the revision. Changes for program sustainability: • Remove non-County maintained roads from the program • Increase Application Fee from $100 to $200 (to provide Brief Initial Analysis) • Add Board of Supervisor annual review to determine if a proposed PPP project should proceed based on available resources Other changes: • Define that substantial property owner support is a majority • Add that continued maintenance, after project completion, is based on available resources • Add 90 day time limit for applicant to respond to Brief Initial Analysis • Add that a project may be reduced in scope due to exceeding statute monetary limitation • Add that the Applicant may withdraw from the program if (1) a project is postponed to a subsequent BOS annual review, or (2) a project is reduced in scope due to exceeding statute monetary limitation

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Upon recording of the resolution authorizing the program amendment, no further action needed. The department will process PPP requests pursuant to the amended criteria.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

If the amendment is not approved, the program will remain in its current form, unsustainable.
