ADJOURNMENT THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK E2 MEMORANDUM TO: Melinda Coleman, City Manager FROM: Gayle Bauman, Finance Director DATE: June 23, 2015 SUBJECT: 2016-2020 CIP Discussion/Review Introduction The Capital Improvement Plan is an annually prepared document that coordinates the planning, financing and timing of major equipment purchases and construction projects. The 2016-2020 CIP document is being released for review by the various Commissions and a Public Hearing on the CIP will be held at the Planning Commission meeting on July 7th at 7:00 pm. As part of our paperless efforts, a copy of the CIP is available in electronic format on the City’s webpage. Following the receipt of recommendations from all the Commissions, the City Council will be asked to adopt the CIP at the July 27th City Council meeting. Adopting the CIP does not commit the council to the proposed projects, nor implement the assumptions made during the preparation; however, this is the basis for the 2016 Budget as we continue with its preparation. Background The Transmittal Letter highlights the major projects within the Plan for consideration. The document explains each of the proposed projects, as well as analyzes the impacts on the budget for the various funds, along with the tax impact necessary to implement these projects as proposed. The staff submits projects based upon goals set at the Council/Management Team retreats. The finance staff analyzes the funds available for capital projects along with the impacts of the staff proposals. A number of revisions are made in the project submittals based upon the analysis of finance, as well as management priorities to achieve the attached CIP plan. The attached table shows the changes that were made to the original requests based on the City’s financial means and meetings with the various department heads. There is a fairly significant decrease in the cost of projects included in the 2016-2020 CIP compared to previous years. The proposed 2016-2020 CIP contains $35.2 million in expenditures while the 2015-2019 CIP contained $48.2 million (a 27% decrease). The main reason for this decrease is that projects related to the Parks System Master Plan, the Asset Management Plan and the Gas Franchise Fee are not included in this document. The idea is that these types of projects will have little, if any, effect on other city funds or the 2016 tax levy. The only impact should be to the tax levy in 2017 and beyond. Staff is exploring using Abatement Bonds to help fund projects in the Parks System Master Plan, using CIP Bonds to help fund projects in the Asset Management Plan and still working through the implementation of the Gas Franchise Fee. Information on these projects will be available later this year. The projects that could possibly have an effect on 2016 operations or tax levy are included in the 2016-2020 CIP document. Recommendation No action required at this time. This item is for discussion only.
