Project values are updated regularly to <br />reflect: 1) annual inflation for projects,:, as estimated by applying the Engineering News <br />Record national 20 city average Construction Cost Index to the original project estimate, and <br />2) actual costs for any bond-funded projects. <br />Step Four - Project Cost Allocation <br />The project cost allocation methodology, for use in determining the improvement fee cost <br />basis, is a four-step allocation process consisting of the following steps: <br />Page 12 OF 39 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
