<br />CASE # 3 <br /> <br />RATIFY THE 2008 - 2012 PARK'S <br />CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM <br />By: Mark Riverblood, Parks Supervisor <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />On January 8th of this year, City Council is expected to approve the 2008 through 2012 Capital <br />Improvement Program (CIP), which includes up to ten park related improvements for 2008. It is <br />important to note that the document is a planning tool and forecast - and does not initiate a <br />project or allocate funding. <br /> <br />These park improvements have different funding sources which are identified in the attached CIP <br />worksheets, along with the project description and justification. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />The purpose of this case is to review the park improvements that are scheduled several years out <br />in brief - with more detail afforded to the near-term projects. As the City initiates a specific park <br />or trail project for the current year, the costs and work plan are defined and broughtto the <br />Commission for recommendation to City Council. <br /> <br />There are, however, two potential park land purchases that are not included in the plan that staff <br />would like to discuss with the Commission. If the consensus of the Commission is that these two <br />parcels should be considered for purchase by willing sellers; then this can be added to the Parks <br />CIP at a subsequent time by Council. <br /> <br />Commission Action: <br /> <br />Ratify the 2008 - 2012 Park's Capital Improvement Program - based upon discussion <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br />Director of Public Works/Principal City Engineer <br />Finance Officer <br /> <br />P & R: 1/10/08 <br />
