AGENDA REPORT
Date: June 25, 2025
To: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
From: Greg Ramirez, City Manager
Submitted by: David Sanchez, Community Development Director Subject: 2025-2030 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) General Plan Conformity and Coordination Review
BACKGROUND
Each year, staff reviews the proposed capital improvement projects located within the City of Camarillo for consistency with the General Plan. Staff also reviews other agencies proposed capital improvement projects that are located within or near the City to determine whether a coordinated program of improvements is necessary to reduce inconvenience to the public and possibly reduce the cost of improvements. Staff has reviewed and determined that all projects are in conformance with the City’s General Plan.
DISCUSSION
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) identifies proposed capital improvement projects and equipment purchases to be carried out during a specific planning period. CIPs typically include detailed project descriptions, schedules, environmental review status, projected costs, and other information for each project. Government Code Section 65401 requires an annual review of all proposed capital improvement projects for conformity with the General Plan. Additionally, Government Code Section 65403 provides for other districts and agencies to submit their CIPs to the City for review as to the CIPs’ consistency with the City’s General Plan.
Staff reviews the list of public improvement projects for consistency with the City’s General Plan, with any plans currently being developed, or improvements that are already planned, in an effort to reduce or eliminate inconvenience to the general public and possibly reduce the cost of improvements. This year, the following agencies were contacted and asked to provide their Five- Year Capital Improvement Plans for review:
• Calleguas Municipal Water District
• Camrosa Water District
• City of Camarillo Department of Public Works
• County of Ventura Department of Airports
