Approximately $850,000 of that amount was dedicated to Water <br />124Utility capital funding, approximately $830,000 to Sanitary Sewer Utility capital funding, and <br />125the remaining approximately $500,000 was dedicated to Stormwater Utility capital funding. <br />126 <br />127 <br />Total Impact of the 2011 Implementation Actions. <br />128 <br />129 <br />130The implemented subcommittee recommendations from 2011 are graphically represented, <br />131superimposed on the earlier graph of the problem (Figure 1 above), as follows: <br />132 <br />$250,000,000 <br />Cumulative <br />NewFunding <br />FromNew <br />$200,000,000 <br />Revenues <br />Cumulative <br />NewFunding <br />$150,000,000 <br />FromExisting <br />Operations <br />$100,000,000 <br />Cumulative <br />Current <br />Funding <br />$50,000,000 <br />Cumulative <br />$0 <br />Projected <br />Costs <br />133 <br />134 <br />135 <br />Figure 2. With 2011 Recommended Solutions - All Funds. <br /> The red bars represent <br />136 <br />cumulative annual capital costs, while the green area represents cumulative projected current <br />137 <br />annual budgeted capital funding. The light blue area represents cumulative projected new <br />138 <br />funding from new revenues. The narrow purple area between the green and light blue areas <br />139 <br />represents cumulative new funding from operational budget cuts. All figures are in 2012 dollars. <br />140 <br />141As can be seen, even with implementation of the subcommittee recommendations in 2011, <br />142significant work remains – primarily in the Parks, Pathways, Streets, and IT capital funding <br />143areas, which were not addressed by the 2011 actions. <br />144 <br />145 <br /> <br />
