Dear Mr. McCullough,

Congratulations! I am pleased to announce that your Transportation Enhancement (TE) application has been selected for funding and will be included as part of the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) TE Program.

The approved scope of the project involves the restoration of the historic Breezedale monuments.

KDOT has approved federal funds for this project based on the total project cost estimate of $55,000. The federal portion of funding will be 80 percent of the actual total participating project construction and construction engineering costs. The city will be responsible for the remaining construction and construction engineering costs along with preliminary engineering, right-of-way and utility costs.

The Bureau of Local Projects will be administering your project and someone from that bureau will be contacting you regarding the process to get underway.

Your project will utilize funding authorized under the federal transportation bill referred to as the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users Act (SAFETEA-LU). This funding has a limit on the amount of time it is available for use. As such, the funds must be obligated by September of 2014 or they will no longer be available. Please work diligently to develop your design plans and to get them through the KDOT review process in a timely manner. If the timeline is not meet and the funds associated with this project expire there will not be other funding available to complete your project.

If you have any questions feel free to contact Joel Skelley, State Multimodal Planner, by email at joelsk@ksdot.org or by phone at 785-296-4209. Your interest in this program is appreciated, and we look forward to working with you.

Sincerely,

Dennis R. Slimmer, P.E.

Bureau Chief of Transportation Planning
