               FUND PURPOSE AND GOALS
               The Capital Projects Service Fund provides for program management, engineering design, project management,
               surveying, and quality control and construction inspection services for most water, sewer, street, storm drainage,
               sidewalk  and  other  city  initiated  infrastructure  improvement  projects.   Additionally,  construction  inspection
               services and quality control are provided for developer initiated infrastructure projects under Community Facility
               Agreements.

               The Fund’s core functions include: leadership and management of the city’s high profile capital programs and
               projects;  implementation  of  Integrated  Program  Management;  facilitation  and  improvement  of  tracking  and
               reporting  of  project/program  status  in  partnership  with  the  Management  Team  and  Financial  Management
               Services  Department;  improvement  and  capacity  expansion  of  the  city  capital  program  and  project  delivery
               systems; and synchronization of the city’s capital planning process with the city’s comprehensive plan.

               MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS

               The group supported the development of infrastructure capital projects recommended in the 2018 Bond program
               and  early  jump-start  design  on  selected  project  for  quicker  delivery.  Additional  Project  Management  and
               Construction Inspection resources were secured to meet the increasing workload demand while sustaining the
               performance quality on city infrastructure capital projects and Developer initiated projects.

               The work process for delivery of capital projects was mapped and a program initiated to develop work instructions
               to  further  enhance  the  process.   The  improvements  in  work  process  was  extended  to  include  Contractor
               engagement and a forum on a two-month cadence was established to strengthen the working relationship with
               the Capital Delivery Team and to expand the purchasing community reach.
