RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Budget Standing Committee of the City Council review and provide feedback on the proposed Capital Improvement Program for the Fiscal Year 2023-24.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) outlines large capital expenditures and infrastructure improvement projects throughout the City. City departments identify necessary improvements and prioritize project implementation when preparing the CIP.
City staff considers the following criteria when selecting projects for inclusion in the CIP:
• Grant-funded projects requiring a city contribution
• Previously approved projects under construction or contract • Projects required for regulatory compliance
• Projects to maintain or upgrade existing City infrastructure • Projects with no general fund allocations
• Projects requested by the community or city departments With these guidelines in mind, Staff proposes the following FY 2023-24 CIP budget appropriations. The proposed fiscal year (FY) 2023-24 CIP budget is $267 million, with $47 million of new appropriations and approximately $220 million of previous year appropriations for continuing projects.
CIP Project Summary
The FY 2023-24 CIP includes 171 projects: 34 new projects, and 135 continuing projects.
The CIP is comprised of six project types:
• Public Facilities
• Parks
• Storm Drains
• Sanitary Sewer
