Quantifying such benefits through metrics like health savings and property values allows green projects to justify funding based on returns.

قد يتيه المرء في صحراء فيسير فيها ولا يعرف شمالها من جنوبها ولا شرقها من غربها. وقد يشتد عليه الأمر فلا يجد ماء ولا شرابًا ولا طعامًا، فيُصبح الهلاك محتمًا عليه من كل ناحية. فكم يتوق هذا المرء إلى أن يأوي إلى شجرة يتفيء تحت ظلالها عند اشتداد الحر ليدفع عن نفسه الهلاك وينتعش في جو لطيف ويشم رائحة الهواء العليل ويشرب من الماء الطاهر النظيف، حقيقة لا سرابًا.
فمَثَل الذي يقرأ القرآن والذي لا يقرأ القرآن ولا يتأمله ولا ينتفع به كمَثَل رجل يتفيء في ظلال شجرة وينتفع من محيطها، ورجل تائه في صحراء لا يرى نجاة في سيره. فهاهنا ظلال العرش برواية ورش، جعله الكاتب ترجمة لمؤلفه، لأن مَن قرأ رواية قرآن كرواية ورش وتعلَّمها وانتفع بها فهو يتفيء في ظلال العرش في ظلال رحمة الله، لأن القرآن ورواياته رحمة من الله قال تعالى: {وما كنت ترجوا أن يلقى إليك الكتاب إلا رحمة من ربك} [القصص: 86].
وهذا الكتاب يُشكِّل قيمة علمية في خدمة القرآن في رواية ورش عن نافع المعتبرة من الروايات المتواترة وخلاصة تجربة علمية في هذه الرواية المباركة عبر سني عمر الشيخ حسين عسيران رحمه الله عما تلقاه من شيخه الشيخ حسن دمشقية رحمه الله، وأضافت الحافظة الجامعة هدية الركبي بلمسة جمال على جمال فخرج الكتاب يتلألأ من بين ثنايا سلالة نورانية تلمع من بيروت وتضيء من مصر - حيث كان ورش - وتشرق من صاحب الرسالة من المدينة المنورة - حيث كان نافع - ويفيض النور من السماء - حيث جبرائيل عليه السلام {وأنزلنا اليكم نورًا مبينًا} [النساء: 174] – ومن رب العزة حيث يختص برحمته مَن يشاء.
والكتاب رقمه المؤلف لطلبة القرآن في رواية ورش ليرضعوا من لبانه ويتزودوا من ثماره ويغرفوا من بحاره، وهو أثارة من علم هذا الشيخ المبارك الذي آتاه الله البصيرة المتفتحة والذاكرة الواعية والذي أجمع مَن قرأ عليه القرآن بتضحيته وإخلاصه في تلقين القرآن على الوجه الذي نزل دون أن يأخذ مقابل تقري

This document discusses the potential for connected vehicle technology to transform transportation. It notes that current transportation systems are inefficient and unsafe, resulting in high costs from accidents, congestion, and environmental impacts. The document envisions future transportation systems that are smart, networked, and use intelligent technologies to provide safer, more efficient mobility through services like connected traffic management, smart road pricing, and vehicle-to-vehicle communication. These changes could be driven by government policy and create new opportunities for generating revenue through transportation services and data.

Clark County School District's state funding is complicated, involving factors like the Distributive School Account (DSA) and local property taxes and sales taxes. The district is guaranteed to receive at least as much in total state funding as it generates from one-third of property taxes and 100% of local sales tax revenue. People costs, such as salaries and benefits for teachers and staff, account for 89% of CCSD's budget while other operating expenses make up the remaining 11%. CCSD has faced a structural budget deficit and has had to make difficult choices, such as staffing cuts, to close budget gaps while still ranking 19th out of the 20 largest US school districts in per-student spending.

Recognize our beaches as essential infrastructure
that supports the local economy and quality of
life for our residents. That infrastructure
requires an annual investment of $15 million to
maintain.
Some Facts:
In 2011, 86.5 million visitors to
Florida spent $67.2 billion dollars.
58% of those visits were primarily
for the beach.
Beaches are the #2 activity (behind
shopping) activity for tourists.

Facing many challenges:
GUA was established in 2009
Provides water and wastewater utility service to
residents of Belle Glade, Pahokee, South Bay and
surrounding areas
Decline in utility revenue due to unemployment,
housing unit vacancies and reduced business activity
Fragile infrastructure due to inability of GUA to make
capital investments
Significant Rate Increase needed to remain financially
viable
31. Proposed Plan to Absorb GUA
• Upon absorption, maintain the GUA Base Facility Fee and
Commodity Fee as of May 1, 2012 for eight (8) years. After eight (8)
years the rates will equal the Countywide Base Facility Fee and
Commodity Fee plus 7%.
• WUD will assume to GUA’s eleven (11) current debt obligations
which total approximately $28.6 Million. Of this amount, WUD will
pay-off five (5) of the debt obligations totaling approximately $2.2
Million.
• The County agrees to continue to pay an annual entity transfer to
each of the three (3) cities totaling 7% of gross receipts for each
municipal entity service area.
• The County will retain the current GUA employees.
• The County will make a $25 Million capital contribution to the
system in the first five (5) years.

Through the implementation of rate indexing, cash reserves as of September 30, 2011 were 97% of annual operating expenses net of depreciation and amortization and exceeded the minimum benchmark of 25%. Bad debt expense for 2011 was .56%. The budget forecasts that revenues will continue to be sufficient to fund operating expenses, debt service, a portion of the Department’s capital project expenditures and sufficient reserves without a rate increase beyond annual indexing.
PBC requests annual grant funding from the state for all of the county’s beach related projects. Recent state budget shortfalls have limited funding. A proposed emergency beach funding bill and a recovery of funding through real estate doc stamp revenue may help the state to meet its commitments.On the federal side, Congress historically added earmarks to the Corps of Engineers budget to help fund 4 County renourishment projects. Since earmarks are no longer an option, the required appropriations need to be a part of the Corps annual budget. The County’s Legislative Delegation and lobbyist are working towards shepherding such directive language into law.
