About the Capital Improvement Program (CIP)

The City’s Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a planning tool that identifies and prioritizes infrastructure projects needed to maintain, repair, and improve public assets throughout the community. These projects include streets, storm drains, sewer systems, City facilities, parks, and public safety infrastructure that help keep residents safe and maintain reliable City services.

The CIP serves as a long-range roadmap of community infrastructure needs, helping the City plan for future investments, extend the life of public assets, and use limited funding responsibly. Projects are evaluated annually based on factors such as safety, regulatory requirements, infrastructure condition, community benefit, cost-effectiveness, and alignment with City Council priorities.

Importantly, the CIP is a living document and needs inventory, not a funding commitment. While it highlights projects the City may pursue over the next five years and beyond, funding decisions are made through the annual budget process based on available resources and community priorities. By maintaining a transparent list of infrastructure needs, the CIP helps residents understand the challenges facing the City and how those needs may be addressed over time.
