Cost estimates - maintenance expenditures. While the cost estimate shown above are believed to be accurate, it must be recognized that the exact cost of each project may vary from the estimate shown.
It is the intention of the City of Tulsa and is the official City policy herein established that all such projects shall be completed as funds are made available. To ensure such result, that portion of the funds designated for maintenance of existing capital improvements and facilities shall also be regarded as a reserve for cost overruns and not more than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) per year may be expended for such maintenance until it shall become apparent that sufficient funds will be generated to complete all of the above projects. Excess funds, if any, shall be:
1.
Spent on maintenance of capital improvements and facilities; or
2.
Transferred to a special revenue fund created pursuant to a temporary sales tax increase and monitored by a Sales Tax Overview Committee for projects which have not been completed.
In addition to providing financing for the projects and purposes set forth in Subsection B of this section, funds generated from the temporary increased sales tax may be expended for maintenance of capital improvements and facilities or to repay indebtedness expended for any of such projects or purposes.
