CAPITAL PROJECT FUNDS
The Capital Improvement Program is developed with the following guidelines whenever possible:
The Capital Improvement Program is developed to match costs against expenses occurring in
corresponding periods of time. In other words, the development and timing of infrastructure
improvements is crucial to maintaining current and future developments while maintaining or lowering
debt ratios. Development fees offset the amount of borrowings in the Street and Utility Construction
funds. In FY 2020-2021, the city is not projected to issue debt but will re-purpose existing debt to
continue to make infrastructure improvements.
The impact of infrastructure improvements on operating and maintenance costs is evaluated and measured
annually during the budget development process and during revisions to the Long-Term Financial Plan.
Operating and Maintenance cost impacts in FY 2020-2021 are reflected in increases in supply costs,
staffing increases and in additional service requirements related to expansion of existing facilities, new
facilities and transmission lines.

not issue new debt for street projects.
Utility Construction Fund
