The passage in 2005 of the Federal Transportation bill provided two earmarks for the Marketplace, Downtown and the Waterfront. In addition to this appropriation, there are several other transportation projects underway. The City is developing a rational approach to the planning and utilization of these funds, with CEDO responsible for overall planning and coordination.
