46.24 	(3) the project's total life-cycle cost;
46.25 	(4) additional criteria for priorities otherwise specified in state law, statute, or rule that 
46.26 	applies to a category listed in the act making an appropriation for the program; and
46.27 	(5) any other criteria the commissioner deems necessary.
