The County Administrator is also authorized to take the necessary administrative and budgetary actions to implement the PTGA and to approve any future amendments to the PTGA that do not increase the County's local match percentage greater than 25%. Finally, the action provides the one-time local match and accepts unanticipated grant revenue to fund the project.
