Page 21 - City of Bedford FY20 Approved Budget

 Capital Improvement Program Highlights

A complete listing of the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program can be found in the
Capital Improvement Program section of this document. As part of the FY 2018/2019
budget process, these lists were expanded to include equipment replacement and major
maintenance needs over the next five years. The City Council reviewed these lists during
the budget process and authorized funding for several items on the list that were not
included in the proposed budget.

 Conclusion

The budget for FY 2019/2020 is a balanced plan that continues to provide public services
to the residents of the City of Bedford at the same level as prior years. Every effort has
been made to provide funding for a salary plan that provides adequate compensation to the
dedicated employees of the City, while being mindful of the need to be fiscally responsible.
City staff members recognize the challenges faced by the City Council in directing the
growth of the City. Staff hopes to meet those challenges by developing efficient programs
and providing professional customer service through the guidance of the City Council and
approval of the programs reflected within this budget.
