Summary

Committee leaders proposed a reporting approach that concentrates meeting time on five projects that meet the $250 million legislative reporting threshold while producing a quarterly report on all 18 projects that meet the $50 million committee threshold.

Tova Peltz, interim division administrator for delivery and operations, told the committee that while 18 projects meet the committee's $50 million threshold, five meet the legislature's $250 million reporting threshold and should receive focused attention during meetings. "We have 18 projects that meet the $50,000,000 threshold. Those 18 projects, some are in planning phase... And 5 of those 18 meet the $250,000,000 threshold," she said.

Peltz described a plan to use standardized templates for projects in planning, design and construction, and to present quarterly reports to the Commission and the legislature. The committee asked that staff circulate materials several days in advance so members can prepare; staff agreed to aim for at least five days of lead time and to allow members to flag projects for deeper discussion ahead of meetings.
