receive  finish upgrades.  This project  is  currently  in  the  design  and  development phase,  with
               construction to begin at the start of the fiscal year.

               This  year's  budget  also  includes  significant  one‐time  investments  in  street  and  sidewalk
               infrastructure of $16.2 million, explored in more detail under Goal 4, and approximately $28.8
               million to enhance and maintain our parks and trails, as noted in Goal 1.

               The FY 2023‐24 Adopted Budget continues City Council's commitment to cash funding capital
               projects whenever possible. This includes nearly $29 million in park improvements, $16.2 million
               in street and sidewalk improvements, $4.5 million in facilities improvements, $625,000 in water
               system improvements, $250,000 in drainage system improvements and $200,000 in wastewater
               system improvements. With a proposed capital project investment totaling approximately $50.6
               million, about 27% will be cash funded.

               Looking  ahead,  the  city's  Capital  Improvements  Plan  forecasts  $109.4  million  in  city  capital
               expenditures over the next five years and anticipates issuing $71.9 million in debt, or 65.8%. The
               proposed debt includes up to $27 million for street system improvements, $27 million for park
               improvements related to the Keller Sports Park, $10.2 million for water system improvements
               and $7.7 million for wastewater system improvements.

               Debt issuances on the horizon can be found in the city's five‐year Capital Improvements Plan.

               The city maintains a five‐year Capital Improvements Plan to address current and future needs,
               ensuring  we  maintain  and  improve  our  safe  and  efficient  roadways,  sidewalks,  and  water,

               assistance through grant applications and regional partnerships.
