Lobby the state legislature to address capital budget funding reform
PROPOSED PROJECT: Work with administrators at other UC schools and the UCOP to lobby the state legislature to address capital budget funding reform. – Although this may the most difficult recommendation to implement, it may also be one of the most important as funding is probably the most important institutional barrier restricting emission reduction projects. UC Berkeley needs to work with other UC schools to push funding reform related to capital budget on two issues:
- Allow the capital budget to borrow from the operating budget;
- Ensure that bid reversions stay with the campus to fund energy efficiency components that may have been removed during value-engineering.
No
