2027 Capital Equipment Plan
Summary
The five-year equipment replacement plan for police, streets, parks and more was trimmed under council direction to grow just 1% per year, and 2027 may be the last year bonds are needed. Councilmembers want to look at cutting the planned $600,000 equipment levy bump for 2027 — which would push increases to later years.

Impact analysis
Roughly $56,000 under the 1% growth target; removing the 2027 $600,000 levy increase is on the table but would require larger increases in 2028–2031.
Residents who rely on city services like police, plowing, and park maintenance, kept at current levels.
