ARTICLE 2. Infrastructure Plan [13100 - 13104]

13100.

It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this article that the state shall establish and annually update a five-year plan for funding infrastructure. The plan shall include input by the Legislature as provided in Section 13104. The plan shall identify state infrastructure needs and set out priorities for funding. The plan need not identify specific infrastructure projects to be funded, but it shall be sufficiently detailed to provide a clear understanding of the type and amount of infrastructure to be funded and the programmatic objectives to be achieved by this funding. The plan is intended to complement the existing state budget process for appropriating funds for infrastructure by providing a comprehensive guideline for the types of projects to be funded through that process.
