Full Funding Grant Agreement Application
Financial Plan for Full Funding Grant Agreement
Grabauskas: HART Has Submitted FFGA Application
CEO Dan Grabauskas has just told the Finance Committee that as of this morning, HART has submitted its application for federal funding to the FTA.
His announcement was met with a brief round of applause.
UPDATE: Read the full story, with details about the new financial plan, here.
HART To Submit Bill For Line of Credit Within Weeks
HART interim chief Toru Hamayasu said he intends to formally ask the City Council within a week or two to approve increasing the line of credit by $100 million as insurance to pay for the rail project.
The request was outlined by Mayor Peter Carlisle and HART in recent months as a way to satisfy the FTA's request that the city strengthen its rail financial plan. It'll be put in bill form and sent to Council Chair Ernie Martin soon.
Council Vice Chair Ikaika Anderson asked why the request can't come after HART and the FTA finish a full funding grant agreement.
"It's needed for the application for the FFGA," Hamayasu said.
And what happens if the Council doesn't agree to increase the line of credit?
"I think we (would) have a problem with the FFGA," Hamayasu said. "I think we (would) have a risk of not having the FFGA."
From Paula Dockery : "What's truly scary is the Governor's comment that the difference is "with SunRail the state's commitment is capped". The exact opposite is true, according to the FFGA, the State is the one on the hook, not the locals and not the Feds. Does he not know that?"
Wonder what he's getting from the private company that he wasn't going to get from the Federal gov't when they offered him the money a couple months ago?
