Needed capital improvements are identified through system models, repair and maintenance records, and growth. The City uses a team approach to prioritizing capital improvement projects, whereby City staff from all operational areas provide input and ideas relating to each project and its effect on operations, such as: Fire and Police Services staff provides insight into a project’s impact on emergency traffic responses, public lighting issues and other public safety concerns. Planning & Development staff gives direction regarding new development and the infrastructure needs relating to this growth. Other utility departments, such as the Street Department, Electric Department and Water Services Department exchange information regarding each project and coordinated timing of many of the related projects in an effort to create less inconvenience for the citizens affected. By using this team approach, the City develops cooperation among the departments, identifies potential problem areas, and prioritizes financing issues. The Capital Improvements Projects (CIP) generally consist of infrastructure and related construction and do not include small capital items such as furniture, equipment and vehicles. Significant maintenance projects, such as street overlay are not included in the capital project schedules. These maintenance type projects are not capitalized as a fixed asset and are always cash funded, therefore, they are considered operational in nature and are included in the departmental operating budget. The CIP schedules consolidate the capital spending priorities for all operating activities of the City, including all governmental and enterprise activities that provide services to the citizens of Georgetown. The CIP Schedules are included as part of the annual operating budget. The first year of the list becomes the capital budget for the approved budget year. The following pages outline the CIP Schedule for each activity and include anticipated projects, current year project location and sources of funding. 2003/04 Capital Improvement Summary Georgetown Utility Systems/Infrastructure Energy Services/Electric 4,895,000 Transportation Services Streets 2,510,000 Stormwater Drainage 400,900 Water Services Irrigation 1,250,000 Wastewater 5,815,000 Water 6,115,000 General Capital Projects - Facilities & Other General Capital Projects 1,650,115 Total Projects 22,636,015 Issuance Costs for Debt 371,150 TOTAL CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT COSTS 23,007,165 160 Streets Capital Improvements The Streets Department manages, maintains and repairs City streets and rights-of-way. General maintenance, such as overlay, seal coat, sidewalk repairs and micro surfacing, is included in the departmental budget in the General Fund. The capital budget includes new transportation construction projects and major rehabilitation of the City’s roadway systems. In November 2002, voters passed a 0.25 percent sales tax increase that became effective April 1, 2003. The new tax can be used to make improvements to streets in existence at the time of the election and can not be used for construction of new streets. Construction of new streets in Georgetown are planned through a coordinated planning process of the City and the Georgetown Transportation Enhancement Corporation (GTEC), which administers the Section 4B ½ cent sales tax for new transportation projects for economic development. 4-B Transportation Projects – Georgetown Transportation Enhancement Corporation The citizens of Georgetown approved a ½ cent additional sales tax for funding transportation improvements in May 2001. Collection began in October 2001. The GTEC Board prepares a five year Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP), which is reviewed and adjusted annually, and adopts an annual budget. Public hearings are held for the project budgets. The City Council reviews and approves the annual GTEC budget. The GTEC budget is separate from City funding, however the planning process is integrated into the City’s CIP process for implementation of transportation projects. A copy of the 2003/04 GTEC budget is included in the reference section of this document.

The system has expanded rapidly the past five years and the City has begun preparation for a deregulated electric environment. During 2003/04, the City expects continued growth in its electric system, as the southern portion of the service territory is developed. The City has developed a five-year Capital Improvements Program to identify and prioritize construction and replacement needs for the electric utility. The program is designed to maintain adequate capacity to serve the anticipated loads and maintain acceptable voltage at all points on the distribution system, as well as address the continued residential growth in the City. The format of the adopted budget for the Electric Fund and Capital Improvements Program has changed in order to meet the challenges of electric de-regulation. Although the City has not elected to “opt-in” to the de-regulated market, the strategy continues to be to work towards a possible opt-in election in the future. This presentation has been designed to provide commensurate information that is available for other municipalities and investor owned utilities operating in Texas and is therefore in summarized presentation, rather than in detail. Electric Capital Projects - Five Year Plan: The City’s five year Capital Improvements Program is projected to be funded through a combination of cash and debt funding, based on financial forecasting of the Electric Fund. Actual amount of debt issues will be determined upon each individual year’s consideration of actual resources available, coverage requirements and other considerations.

Operational costs will increase as the demand for water increases due to the cost of treatment. The following graph depicts the costs of raw water purchases, the treatment cost and other maintenance costs. These costs have ranged from 7-10% of the value of the infrastructure over the past five years. The City uses this estimate, along with other factors, to forecast future costs in a 5 year financial model, which also predicts the timing of future rate increases. The factors also include the Brazos River Authority’s contract with the City, which provides for a 15% annual increase in the cost of raw water.

The plan has focused on meeting the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Phase II regulations and requirements regarding stormwater control in municipalities. The City is initiating a program to create an extensive Stormwater Drainage mapping system. The information and data derived from a Regional Stormwater Master Plan and Design Manual will be utilized by the City to begin implementation of regional stormwater control and to monitor the water quality of stormwater runoff.

Regrading of the drainage ways will decrease maintenance, improve water quality and create space to be utilized by the neighborhoods. xRiverbend & Power Road This project consists of replacement of the failing standup curbing with curb and gutter. This improvement project will protect the road from further deterioration along the shoulders of the roadway. xDrainage Projects This budget consists of major rehabilitation and repairs as needed for drainage problem areas throughout the City. Financial Impact: The Stormwater Drainage fees fund the maintenance of the City’s drainage system and the debt payments for existing debt on previous drainage improvements. Operational and maintenance costs for the stormwater infrastructure have significantly increased over the past few years, as shown in the graph. The City predicts that maintenance costs will escalate for the next five to eight years and then level off as drainage problems in the City are corrected.
