The Phases of Capital Improvements

The Planning Phase
The Planning Phase typically identifies the projected infrastructure need,
identifies funding options, incorporates funding into the financial plan and
develops a multi-year list of projects to be completed based on projected
growth. Capital projects may require voter approval.

The Design Phase
Once the planning process is complete, design begins on the approved
Capital Improvement projects. The Design Phase may and often does occur
over multiple years.

The Construction Phase
Once the planning and design phases are complete, the Construction Phase
begins. The Construction Phase may include land acqusition, utility
relocation and the bid process for each project. On some projects,
construction may take multiple years. The Citizens of Manfield are notified
of any traffic impact or service disruption.

Completion Phase
The Completion Phase includes final inspection of the project and opening
of streets, utilities, facilities or parks.
