Revised on 03-07-2025

Capital Improvement Project Requests for streets and transportation facilities should normally be referred to the Street/Transportation Projects Oversight Committee (Technical Committee for Capital Programming)1. A project request maybe considered for immediate financing solely on its own merits under one or more of the following circumstances:

  1. The project is partially financed or otherwise previously authorized.
  2. There is an agreement, commitment, or coordination required with other agencies or projects.
  3. City financing is recommended in accordance with established policies or practices (such as City contributions to assessment projects, assistance to religions institutions, etc.).
  4. There are contemplated substantial cost savings.
  5. The project is relatively small (currently under $5,000) or nature that is not normally considered in the capital program.
  6. The project is of an emergency nature involving:
    1. The protection of life or health,
    2. The provision of safety measures, or
    3. The prevention of property damage.
