Update Overview:

As part of the 2035 Wake Transit Plan Update the Community Funding Area Program Management Plan (CFA PMP) was also reviewed for any needed updates. 

The last update to the Community Funding Area Program Management Plan (CFA PMP) was completed in 2020 as part of the 2030 Wake Trasnit Plan update process. It was a relatively minor update compared to the recommendations included in the draft 2025 CFAPMP. 

Development of the 2025 CFA PMP began in December 2023. The process has relied on active participation of TPAC members including CFA Program eligible participants.

Recommendations: 

• Added Unincorporated Wake County as an Eligible area/applicant
• Lowered Local Match Requirement from 50% to 35%
• Removed funding cap on Planning/Technical Assistance Projects
• Establish 3% Target for Planning funding each year
• Projects still required to provide 35% Local Match
• Increased overall funding for CFA Program
• Tripled funding from $20M over next 10 years to $60M
• All CFA project funding will come from this pot of money
• Revised Scoring Criteria to account for new match requirement
• Added appendix providing options to consider in future for graduation framework
• Added clarification of process for scope and/or budget changes during Annual Review process
