City Manager Brake told the Finance Committee the capital improvement plan is intended as a multiyear tool that prioritizes preserving existing city assets and coordinating large projects across the city.
Braking down funding sources, Brake said, "what's coming out of the general fund is about $4,000,000," and emphasized leveraging state grants, impact fees and other sources to maximize those dollars and coordinate concurrent street and waterline replacements. He also described a change in presentation approach: the CIP is organized by geography rather than department to improve transparency and resident understanding.
