Preliminary 2027-2031 Capital Improvement Plan

Summary

The city laid out $118.2 million in capital projects over five years — streets, parks, buildings, and utilities. A $10 million street bond sale is planned to close a roughly $5 million annual funding gap, adding about $43 a year to taxes on a $350,000 home. The mayor warned the 2027 budget will be the biggest yet, driven largely by 24/7 fire service.
