On Tuesday, Nov. 5 at 6:30 pm, the City Council will hold a special study session on our Capital Improvement Program (CIP). This is our first attempt after the end of Redevelopment (it has been 4 years since the last real discussion) to look at how we will spend our "capital" dollars over the next 5 years to improve livability in town. This will be a challenge as we have less money and will balance prioritizing sewer repairs, road infrastructure, parks, building maintenance, and other worthy projects, all with fewer dollars to spend. This study session which will last until around 7:15 is the beginning of a process (see below) with culminating Council action in March/April 2014.
- Identify available resources
- Identify priorities based on our plans that give us a roadmap for our future growth
- Define priority results more precisely
- Prepare a list of projects and programs for evaluation
- Create a priority listing of projects and programs
- Allocate resources
Come to City Hall (1333 Park Ave) and join in the discussion!
Our last CIP plan (2006-2011) is available
here.
