Again, people, assets, state of good repair, and safety and security.

We've been focusing on that for many years and this budget is no exception.

We do feel like the budget helps us build on the progress that we've made and to enable us to start delivering the promises that

were voted for as part of the sales tax referendum back in November.

Little bit about the budget.

This is an interesting budget year in that I am presenting a 12-month full fiscal year budget to you, but this budget will be marked by two governing bodies, we believe, throughout that 12-month full fiscal year.

So you'll see that a little bit as we go through the budget.

First of all, our budget looks at how do we continue to support the current services we provide?

What we're doing today, how do we make sure we continue doing that?

Second, we look at how we expand service via the 2055 Transit System Plan, or TSP, what the voters approved back in November.

And third,

a category we're calling strengthen organizations capacity and resiliency.

These are the increases necessary to help us become part of an authority or conversely, no longer part of the city of Charlotte, right?

So there are certain functions that CATS receives from the city of Charlotte.

right, certain functions that all departments get as being part of the larger organization that we will still need, but now we have to provide those functions independently because we're not part of the city of Charlotte.

So again, organizational capacity and resilience to some degree, what's necessary to make this transition possible.

Okay, let's start with the revenues.

I will walk through these pretty quickly.

Transit revenue are the revenues we generate internally, fare box revenues, advertising revenues, all those things that transit generates as part of our function.

So total projected transit generated revenue is $18.8 million.
