Tonight’s entire City Council meeting is one item. One workshop, five years of capital spending on the table.
The 3 items worth your attention
There’s only one item on the agenda, and it’s a big-picture one. The City Council holds its first annual budget workshop presenting the 2027-2031 Capital Improvement Program (D-1). This is the session where staff lays out which infrastructure and major projects the city intends to fund over the next five years. Tonight’s discussion isn’t a final decision; it’s a presentation on priorities, and this is the public’s earliest look at where capital dollars are headed through 2031.
Roads & property
- The 2027-2031 Capital Improvement Program covers infrastructure and major projects citywide, though specific project lists and dollar amounts aren’t detailed in the posted agenda (D-1).
Where the money’s going
- No contract or grant items are on this agenda. The workshop presents multi-year spending priorities; line-item funding decisions come later in the budget process (D-1).
Also notable
- This is billed as the first annual budget workshop of this format, so the structure itself is new, not just the numbers inside it (D-1).
