HomeMy WebLinkAbout14 - Capital Improvement ProjectsCapital Improvement Projects The City of Georgetown annually updates and adopts a five year Capital Improvements Project (CIP) Schedule as part of the operating budget adoption process. The Capital Improvements Projects generally consist of infrastructure and related construction and do not include small capital items such as furniture, equipment and vehicles. The schedules consolidate the capital spending priorities for all operating activities of the City. This includes general government activities, such as street and bridge construction, park development, police, fire and recreation facilities; and enterprise activities, such as electric transmission and distribution facilities, water treatment plants, towers, distribution and transmission facilities, wastewater interception, collection systems, and treatment facilities, stormwater drainage improvements and other requirements to provide services to the citizens. The CIP Schedules are included as one 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 with anticipated projects and funding sources for the next five years. CIP Funding: Street improvements will be funded with Sun City SIP fee revenue, dedicated property taxes, and general obligation debt, part of which was originally approved in the 1995/96 Annual Operating Plan. This general obligation debt issue of approximately $4,800,000 will fund not only $2.9 million of street improvements, but also fund General Capital projects such as the construction of the Sun City fire station and the purchase of land for a new public safety facility. The utility funds of the City will require approximately $4,000,000 in additional revenue bonds for the development of the Customer Choice & Control (CCC) system (cost shared by Electric, Water and Wastewater funds). Electric and Wastewater improvements relating to Sun City will be completed in 1996/97 with the remaining proceeds of the 1995 Series Revenue Bonds issued in May 1995 and the 1995A Series Revenue Bonds issued in August 1995. During 1996/97 the City will complete Stormwater Drainage Improvements funded in August 1995 through General Certificates of Obligation. The City re- enacted Water and Wastewater impact fees in January 1996 to pay for utility system expansion which will reduce future debt issuances, but will not provide significant funds for the. next two budget years. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS ANNUAL OPERATING PLAN ELEMENT 1996/97 315 Project funding for 1996/97 CIP is as follows: (1) Operating revenues and debt proceeds carried forward from prior years. (2) Includes Capital Recovery Fees (SIP fees.) (3) New debt only. Effect on Operations: Since capital projects result in assets which need continuing maintenance and care, operating budgets are often affected. For most projects it is not easy to determine the ongoing operating costs. Most capital projects have only incremental effects on annual operating budgets. The financial impact of any capital improvement is included and noted in the affected department pages.

The savings realized from more efficient load management in water and electric, staff reductions (2 of 4 meter readers will be transferred to other departments in 1997/98), and more timely billing information, will offset debt service and system maintenance costs.
