Capital Expenditures and Impact on Operating Costs

Most of the capital improvement projects are recurring (reconstruction/replacement)
expenditures since the City is a matured city with aged streets, water and sewer systems.
The City rarely adds new roads and or new infrastructure for expansion. Most of the
reconstruction expenditures on capital project do not have significant impact on operating
cost.

For non-recurring (expansion) capital outlays, the impact upon operations of these
improvements is reflected in the additional cost of maintaining parks, streets and drainage
systems.

Replacement of storm sewers, curb and gutters does not reduce the annual budget for
maintenance. It does allow these scarce dollars to be allocated to other projects for up
to 15 years. Every mile of road in which the City rebuilds the storm sewers, curb and
gutter allows the City to shift nearly $40,000 in maintenance materials and labor to other
needed projects. Replacing worn and damaged water lines reduces lost water and
increases customer billing. Each 1% of lost water that is captured through capital outlay
is worth about $90,000 at current commodity rates.
