6 CAPITAL PLANS <br />This chapter presents the capital program that forms <br />the basis of this Transportation Plan. Collectively, <br />this program adds up to $127 million in <br />transportation improvements to be constructed over <br />the next twenty years as seen in Table 10. <br />Funding to support this program will come from a <br />number of sources including the County's general <br />funds, gas taxes, property taxes, as well as federal <br />and state grants. Since the County's ability to attract <br />outside funding sources is unknown, this project list <br />may reach beyond the 20-year time horizon. <br />The program was developed to create a <br />transportation system that realizes Kittitas County's <br />goal: safe, balanced, and efficient multi-modal <br />transportation system that serves anticipated local <br />and regional growth. This vision is guided by the <br />transportation goals outlined in this Plan: <br />1. Safe <br />2. Efficient and Accommodates Growth, but <br />Respects Rural Character <br />3. Complete, Multimodal, and Accommodates <br />Outdoor Recreation <br />4. Leveraged by Active Partnerships <br />5. Sustainably Funded and Maintains What <br />We Have <br />With these goals in mind, as well as completing the <br />layered networks described in the previous chapter, <br />the project list was developed. <br />Table 11 describes the recommended projects, <br />which represent a balance of safety, maintenance, <br />and operational improvements for all modes. These <br />projects provide a starting point for the County in <br />developing its Six-Year Transportation Improvement <br />Program, which is updated annually and is <br />developed based on knowledge related to project <br />feasibility and funding availability. They were scored <br />based on their ability to meet the goals outlined in <br />Chapter 4 -Transportation Goals and Policies. A full <br />list of scoring criteria is included in Appendix D <br />Table 10.
