Waterfront Plan Implementation (2015 and Beyond)
• Translate Olin and flood mitigation designs into a fundable implementation plan
• Determine what gets built when by phasing • Develop phasing and funding plan for capital
budget (CIP) • Will compete with other capital needs in a
short and medium term constrained fiscal environment
