route.

however, they shall be utilized to fund the future capacity
components for roadways scheduled in accordance with the
foregoing priority criteria. All Priority 1 projects shall be
accommodated prior to any revenue distribution to Priority 2
projects; likewise, Priority 2 projects shall be accommodated
prior to any revenue distribution to Priority 3 projects. The
TAC shall submit the CIS directly to the Board of County
Commissioners by January 1 of each calendar year with a copy to
the City Council of the Municipality.

the CIS, as well as adoption of road alignments, geometric
configuration, right -of -way width, whether a roadway should have
landscaped medians, type of landscaping for transportation
improvements, and other related factors, shall be the decision of
the Board of County Commissioners after due consideration of the
recommendations of all Technical Advisory Committees. The
recommendations of the TAC shall not be binding on the Board of
County Commissioners, but the Board of County Commissioners shall
regard the TAC recommendations as highly persuasive and shall
accord said recommendations great weight in reaching their final
determination. Further, this Section 5.D. shall not be construed

15. MAINTENANCE OF EFFORT: Although the parties hereto
acknowledge that the Board of County Commissioners can not
lawfully contract away its legislative powers, the County agrees
to the following policies and principles regarding the Impact Fee
program as envisioned by this Agreement:
A. Impact Fees collected pursuant to the Ordinance
and as contemplated by this Agreement shall be expended only for
new public transportation infrastructure and facilities, or any
expansion of existing public transportation facilities,
necessitated by new Development. The Impact Fees and amounts
thereof collected from individual Development projects shall bear
a rational nexus to the impacts upon public transportation
infrastructure created or caused by the new Development, all of
which impacts shall be located off -site of said Development.
B. The County shall not reduce its expenditure of
funds (other than transportation Impact Fees) in Benefit Area 9
to maintain or expand public transportation facilities and
services and otherwise expend said funds in other Benefit Areas
due to the fact that cities within those other Benefit Areas have
determined not to participate in the Impact Fee program set forth
by the Ordinance or for any other reason. Benefit Area 9 shall
have expended within their boundaries at least their fair share
of all funds expended by the County in furtherance of the
maintenance and expansion of public transportation facilities and
services. Failure of the County to adhere to this principle may
necessitate termination of this Agreement by the Municipality.
Further, the County recognizes that the Municipality might
thereafter seek to "opt -out" of the Impact Fee program, but any
determination by the Municipality to opt -out of the Impact Fee
Program shall not necessarily be deemed to have been approved by
the County by the execution of this Agreement.
A:int5CC.agr 04 -13 -89
11
C. The parties hereto agree and understand that the
Municipality's participation in the Impact. Fee Program is
significantly founded upon the understandings in this Paragraph
15, as well as the hold harmless /indemnification provisions of
Paragraph 9.
16. INTERPRETATION: The use of the plural form of any word
includes the singular form of such word and vice versa, unless
the context suggests otherwise. Each subtitle or catchline set
forth in this Agreement is not to be construed as part of this
Agreement for purposes of interpretation, but rather, each such
subtitle or catchline is supplied for ease of reading. This
Agreement, and each word, clause, sentence, paragraph, and
provision, is to be read as a whole. However, the
unenforceability, illegality, or unconstitutionality of any
single word, clause, paragraph, or provision shall not be
construed, if at all possible, to invalidate the remainder of
this Agreement. In such circumstances this Agreement shall be
read as if such unenforceable, illegal, or unconstitutional word,
clause, sentence, paragraph, and provision were not a part of
this Agreement.
17. MUNICIPALITY'S ADVISORY COMMENTS: The County
recognizes that the Municipality is voluntarily participating in
the County's Impact Fee program as effectuated by the Ordinance,
and that Impact Fee program funds collected within the
Municipality will be used to improve County operated and
maintained facilities. The Municipality recognizes that as a
direct result of the collection of Impact Fees, public
transportation facilities within the Municipality or directly
benefitting Development projects and residents of the
Municipality will be expanded. Both the Municipality and the
County recognize that as a result of the foregoing, improved
intergovernmental coordination is necessary. Consequently, the
Municipality shall be afforded an opportunity to comment on the
encumbrance by the County of any Impact Fee revenues collected by
the County from a Development within the Municipality for a road
or transportation project partially or wholly within the
Municipality (hereinafter: a "Proposed Project "). Said comments
to the County, although advisory in nature, shall be accorded
great persuasive weight by the County in its deliberations and
planning efforts. So that the Municipality may express its
comments to the County with regard to any Proposed Project and
consider whether to supplement funds to enhance the Proposed
Project, the County shall forward to the Municipality for comment
all proposals for roadway widening or construction or other
transportation improvements to be constructed partially or wholly
within the Municipality and partially or wholly -funded by any
Impact Fees in the manner provided for notice under this
Agreement. Each proposal for such Proposed Project forwarded to
the Municipality shall identify or include: a) the location of
the proposed improvement; b) a description of the nature of the
A:int5CC.agr 04 -13 -89
12
improvement; c) a good faith projection of an estimate of the
overall cost of the improvement; d) a good faith estimate of the
amount of Impact Fees collected from Developments within the
Municipality included within the costs, if any; e) the projected
commencement and completion date of construction of the Proposed
Project; f) a description of the proposed width of the roadway or
facility; and g) a description of proposed landscaping features,
