Project Selection Clause Samples

Project Selection. The Governance Committee may delegate the authority to identify projects to be considered for financing by the Trust to the Trust Administrator, provided however that final authority to approve projects for funding will be retained by the Governance Committee. In determining the projects to be financed from the Trust, the Governance Committee shall apply the requirements of Certificate Condition 165 to determine whether project proposals are related to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ River, Harlem River, East River or Lake Champlain, respectively, and within the purpose of the Certificate Conditions and this Agreement.

Project Selection. The City and Council agree that each individual subregional council and the City shall establish its own points-based methodology for selecting projects and that a minimum of 25% of those points shall be allocated to regional priorities: ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ Infrastructure. Points awarded to projects that use green infrastructure to manage stormwater. ii. Reinvestment. Points awarded to projects that serve a reinvestment area as defined in ON TO 2050. iii. Multi-modal freight movement. Points awarded to projects that benefit freight movement. iv. Economically disconnected areas. Points awarded to projects that improve equity through benefits to economically disconnected areas as defined in ON TO 2050.

Project Selection. All projects under the Communities Component will be selected jointly by the Parties through a competitive, application­based process in accordance with joint criteria to be set out in the Communities Funding Agreement. Such criteria will include the requirement that all Approved Projects fall under one of the BCF Eligible Categories. All applications under the Communities Component must be endorsed, in writing, by the appropriate order of government.

Project Selection. More than 40 research projects have been selected and initiated through a peer review process that reflects substantial input and matching resources from state departments of transportation and MPOs in the region. Collectively, this set of projects addresses all five of the Secretary’s strategic goals and several of USDOT’s requested emphasis areas under State of Good Repair— e.g., (1) bridge condition monitoring, (2) locating critical infrastructure defects, (3) identifying tools to prevent and detect corrosion in transportation infrastructure, (4) analytical tools for infrastructure performance management, and (5) methods and criteria to measure performance of new materials and methods. Other research projects are related to the Secretary’s strategic goals of Safety, Economic Competiveness, Livable Communities, and Environmental Sustainability. The projects selected under the grant are listed in Tables 1-5, under the primary strategic goal addressed by the project. Nevertheless, note that most of the projects address several goals simultaneously. In particular, many projects that address State of Good Repair have Safety and Economic Competiveness benefits. 1.

Project Selection. Project selection is the procedure followed by MPOs, States, and public transportation operators to advance projects from the first 4 years of an approved TIP and/or STIP to implementation. ARC maintains a six-year TIP for the Atlanta MPA. The RTP is the official multimodal transportation plan addressing no less than a 20-year planning horizon that the MPO develops, adopts, and updates through the metropolitan transportation planning process. The financially constrained, staged, multi-year intermodal program of transportation projects covering a metropolitan planning area that is consistent with the RTP. The MPO, in cooperation with the State(s) and any affected public transportation operator(s), shall develop a TIP for the metropolitan planning area. The TIP shall reflect the investment priorities established in the current metropolitan transportation plan and shall cover a period of no less than 4 years, be updated at least every 4 years, and be approved by the MPO and the Governor (or his/her designee per state law). For the Atlanta TIP, the Governor’s approval was delegated to the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority in June 2000 by an Executive Order of the Governor. The TIP must then be incorporated directly or by reference into the State TIP. The document developed and adopted by the MPO that forms a statement of work identifying the planning priorities and activities to be carried out within a metropolitan planning area. The UPWP includes a description of the planning work and resulting products, who will perform the work, time frames for completing the work, the cost of the work, and the source(s) of funds.

Project Selection. Following written request from the municipality, the Planning Commission will make a determination as to whether there is staff expertise and capacity to conduct the requested project and if the project is consistent with and advances Landscapes3. If the project is not selected to advance through the Technical Assistance Agreement process, the Planning Commission will coordinate with the municipality regarding the reasons why and potential avenues to advance the project.
