The plan does not contain a specific designation which denotes project priorities. There is no weighting or matching of priorities between infrastructure types [streets, parks, utilities, building facilities] as each type of project generally has a funding source unique to the project type and from which funds cannot be reallocated. The project number as outlined in the plan is applicable to when the project was first placed in the CIP. For example, project #06 -BLDG -001 - A public works campus has been in the CIP since 2006. Each project includes preliminary funding sources and appropriate background information citing needs and projected cost estimates. A supplemental section titled 'Future Consideration Projects' has also been included. This is a listing of park projects that are prioritized by need and contingent upon availability of resources. These projects are unfunded and unscheduled until resources become available. Notification: The draft document of the 2015-2019 was brought to the City Council at its January 27, 2015 worksessions. Some slight modifications were recommended to the plan and they have been incorporated in the document that is attached. The request for the public hearing was adopted at the regular City Council meeting of January 27, 2015 and the notice was posted in the Union. Observations/Alternatives: Options: 1. Adopt Plan as outlined noting that this is a planning tool only and not the authorization of any one project listed. 2. Take no Action at this time for further review of each project. Per the City Charter, a five-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) needs to be adopted annually. Funding Source: Each project contained within the 2015-2019 Capital Improvement Program states the respective funding source(s). Recommendation: Staff recommends Option #1 to adopt the 2015-2019 Capital Improvement Plan that is attached noting that this is a forecasting tool and not actual, committed projects and expenditures. Action: Motion to adopt Resolution #15-02-033 adopting the City of Ramsey's 2015-2019 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). 2015-2019 CIP 2015-2019 CIP Supplemental Reso 15-02-033 adopting 2015-2019 CIP Attachments Form Review
