6233-A - Master capital plan.

 6233-a. Master capital plan. On or before November fifteenth of each
  year,  the  trustees  of the city university shall approve and submit to
  the chairmen of the assembly ways and means  committee  and  the  senate
  finance  committee  and  to  the director of the budget a master capital
  plan  setting  forth  the   projects   proposed   to   be   constructed,
  reconstructed, rehabilitated or otherwise substantially altered pursuant
  to  appropriations  enacted  or to be enacted during the succeeding five
  years. During the selection of projects  for  such  plan,  the  trustees
  shall, where applicable, give due consideration to projects that support
  improvements   in   environmental   protection,   energy   and  resource
  management, solar energy and conservation with particular  consideration
  given  to a project's potential to generate cost savings over time. Such
  plan shall specify the name, location, estimated total cost at the  time
  the  project  is  to  be bid, the anticipated date or dates on which the
  design of such project is to commence, the proposed method of  financing
  and the estimated economic life of each project. Such plan shall further
  specify   whether   proposed   projects   constitute  new  construction,
  substantial   rehabilitation,   moderate   rehabilitation    or    minor
  rehabilitation  and  shall indicate how projects support improvements in
  environmental protection, energy and resource management,  solar  energy
  and  conservation.  Such  criteria  for  each  method of financing shall
  include, but not be limited to: (i) an analysis of  private  enterprise,
  federal   and  any  other  appropriate  financing  standards,  (ii)  the
  consideration of the period of economic life of projects as  related  to
  the  method  of financing, and (iii) project cost ranges for the methods
  of financing. Such plan specifications, categories or  construction  and
  criteria  for  methods of financing shall be defined by the trustees, in
  consultation with the city university construction fund.
