Capital Improvement Plan
The annual review of the capital needs of the community focuses attention on improving and constructing capital assets necessary for providing the services, facilities and infrastructure expected by residents and businesses. It allows our community to offer a sustainable, enhanced quality of life with the financial resources available and those approved by the voters. The Resolution to adopt the Capital Improvement Program is presented to the Council in March every year.
