These amendment requests include the following:
1) Proposed changes to the budgeted amounts for Projects TO002-L, -V, and -W (CAMPO staffing) to cover additional indirect costs and increased labor expenses for which the 2.5% annual cost escalation assumed with Wake Transit multi-year operations programming has not kept pace are appropriate for the continued implementation of the Wake County Transit Plan.
