Because of the volume of infrastructure necessary to help a city function and excel, the City creates a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) each year. It prioritizes ideas and needs, essential projects and funding for projects within a five-year span. Although City Council only approves funding for the first year of the five-year plan, it is important to utilize the CIP as a planning tool.
The City's current CIP, covers five fiscal years, FY15-16 through FY19-20, and was adopted by the City Council on July 7, 2015. The approved CIP included new funding for projects assigned to FY15-16.
