  • 1 the Workbook Integrates the Facility Portion of the Agency Budget Submission with the Capital Project Advisory Board Submission
    1 The workbook integrates the facility portion of the Agency Budget Submission with the Capital Project Advisory Board Submission. 2 The definitions for budget priorities are the same in both documents. 2a Note: Priority # 4 has changed from Recommended Improvements to Seismic and Natural Hazard Remediation. Add your remediation estimates by building, if your agency has conducted this analysis. For agencies participating in the Facility Conditions Assessment Program, this assessment will be provided. 2b Priority #5 has changed from New Code Requirements/Standards to Modernization. This category combines the former #4 Recommended Improvements, and the former #5, New Code priority categories. It expands the definition to include replacement of facilities. See definition in the budget instructions and those included in the relevant forms. 3 Begin the workbook with the last 3 CPAB tabs. This data feeds much of the reaming workbook. These will be reviewed by CPAB only. If your agency has migrated to iPlan, the blue columns will come directly from the iPlan CPAB reports. IF your agency has not migrated to iPlan, please self-report your information. 3a CPAB Current Priority 1-4 is for current needs as of April 2020 to align with the PICS reporting budget instructions. 3b CPAB 10 Year Priority 1-4 gives your agency the opportunity to give the 10 year projected needs for your building portfolio. 3c CPAB Priority 5 are not generally part of an FCA, rather they are needs that are driven by program and function. New buildings and major building refresh/renovations would generally be included in priority #5.
