Continued discussion of the proposed FY2027-FY2031 Capital Improvement Program

54:29

Paul Cunninghamhigher. We're at 185 now, so we need to go back up to 161. As I'm reading that number I'm talking about that one. That's a project that says long term It doesn't haven't happened to have the stamp of adopted last year or move to operating budget on it But It's funded right now and it's out of the general fund I I can support that kind of project, but when we get into short term, long term, and those parts of the comp plan, we were normally going to deal with just the capital improvements program that was funded by the city and these other sections, we weren't going to be in as much except this is an outlier that's one that apparently is there for us to comment on. and I could support that but I'm trying to figure out what's long-term about it

as opposed to the rest and then slide 166 says ongoing and in the text it says it's 3.193 million and it's part of a fleet replacement program and when I go down and see it's going to be funded out of the stormwater utility fund so it's not coming out of the general fund the total costs for the program across the line are 1.37 million if you add the current year costs this apparently is a longer-term project but none of it comes response to the 3.193, so in putting stuff in here, we're not talking on a focused program, we're talking about a long-term program. And it's one since it's being put out of the Stormwater Utility Fund, should be in the CIP, but it's not one that we necessarily need to be concerned about.

vehicle replacement projects and ongoing continuing things when we go down a little bit so we can see the funding that's coming out of the general fund and part of my question on that is that stuff that we can play out of cash flow or is this the kind of funding that we put a little bit down in cash and then we're going to finance the bulk of it as it's ongoing since this is and and many vehicles across a long period of time that is ongoing. And this is where we get into figuring out affordability on what kind of projects do we need to pay cash for going forward in the CIP, what do we need to finance, and how do we balance this with the majors, the high school, the elementary schools, the property yard, the fire station, Van Dyke Park,
