The FY2027–2031 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) serves as the City’s long-term planning framework for investing in essential infrastructure, public facilities, equipment, technology, and community assets. The CIP reflects a strategic multi-year approach intended to support public safety, infrastructure reliability, operational sustainability, economic development, and quality of life throughout the community.

The FY2027–2031 CIP includes significant planned investment in roadway improvements, water and sewer infrastructure, public safety facilities, parks and recreation amenities, technology systems, and other strategic capital priorities. Project timing and implementation are evaluated based on funding availability, operational capacity, regulatory requirements, and long-term financial sustainability.

Certain large-scale utility and infrastructure projects included within the CIP may be phased or adjusted based on future financing strategies, bond issuance timing, grant opportunities, development activity, and ongoing evaluation of enterprise fund capacity and affordability considerations.

Additional project details, funding sources, timelines, and project status information can be found within the City’s standalone FY2027–2031 Capital Improvement Program document and online CIP platform available at: City of Manteca FY2027–2031 Capital Improvement Program
