During Advanced Construction years KDOT totals reflect funds in which KDOT initially pays for project costs using state funds. During Advanced Construction conversion years, project funding becomes federal funds and KDOT state funds are credited back. Negative values represent a balance where AC conversion outweighs KDOT total financial commitment in the region.
 * KDOT

Includes regionally significant locally funded projects, match funding for federal aid road and bridge projects, and local match for federal transit funds.
 * Local Funds

Includes Sections 5307, 5309, 5310, 5311, 5316-JARC, and all other FTA funds allocated to all transit operators based in Douglas County.
 * Federal Transit Funds

Includes Transportation Alternative-TA, Transportation Enhancement-TE, Safe Routes to Schools-SRTS, High Risk Rural Roads-HRRR, Highway Safety Improvement Program-HSIP and funds from any federal economic stimulus act passed during this TIP period.

=V.TIP AMENDMENTS AND REVISIONS=

Although project cost and funding levels put into the TIP are based on the best available estimates, and even though the schedules set for projects are the result of careful planning, there are times when changes to the information about TIP projects needs to be adjusted. Minor changes to project information are called revisions and are administrative actions with no public involvement required. Major changes are called amendments and require some public involvement. Regardless of whether the proposed changes to the TIP are revisions or amendments, all TIP changes will be discussed by MPO and KDOT staffs and at MPO TAC meetings. The TAC will then recommend actions for the MPO Policy Board to take to address the requested TIP changes. The most frequent types of changes to the TIP are changes to the project tables which generally involve a budget and/or schedule change to road, bridge or transit projects. However, changes to the text of the document can also occur either alone or in conjunction with changes to project information. A key element of this TIP change process is to assure that funding balances are maintained in order to keep the TIP fiscally constrained. The types of changes that can be made to the TIP and how those changes are processed are described below.

Amendment Process
The TIP amendment process described below details procedures that are to be used to update an existing approved TIP. A key element of the amendment process is to assure that funding balances are maintained in order to keep the TIP fiscally constrained.
