Since 1997, the Restoration and Enhancement (R&E) Fund has supported over 500 programs, projects, and initiatives intended to advance the Fund’s objectives and goals. Given this long history, and absence of analysis or review to date, there is a strong public and stakeholder interest in the R&E Fund’s progress toward achieving its goals as well as the opportunity to provide recommendations to enhance the R&E Fund’s overall effectiveness. Based on results of the analysis there may also be an opportunity to develop tools to track R&E Fund performance in meeting its stated purpose into the future.
