Capital projects
Capital projects are the City's big, one-time investments: roads, water mains, parks, and buildings. The City keeps a rolling inventory of every project it has identified — not just the ones funded next year. This page sorts them into what's funded now, what's recently finished, and what's on the list but waiting for money.
35projects with planned funding in the next five years. A project's yearly budget does not tell you whether the whole thing is paid for, so each one shows the gap between its estimated lifetime cost and the funding actually secured.

Projects come from the City's adopted FY 2027–31 Capital Improvement Program. Each project is sorted by comparing its planned five-year spending against its actual spending in prior years: projects with money in the five-year plan are “funded,” projects with significant past spending but none planned ahead are “completed” or “wrapping up,” and projects with neither are listed as identified-but-not-currently-funded. The funding gap, where shown, is the City's latest cost estimate minus all funding that has not been lost. No numbers are estimated.
