The committee reviewed the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget for Fiscal Year 2026-2027, focusing on projects for Fire, Police, Civil Defense, Public Works (including Engineering, Solid Waste, Wastewater), Planning, Finance, IT, HR, Transportation, Housing, Economic Development, and Parks and Recreation. Public testimony was not offered. The meeting ran from morning until afternoon with a one-hour lunch break.
Okay, good morning. I'd like to call back to order the finance and economic development committee and the fiscal year twenty twenty-six-2027 departmental budget reviews that the record reflect that all members are present. Um as we do oh on our schedule today, our only item of business is to discuss the CIP budget projects. As we do every morning, we'll take public testimony. Is there anyone in the audience wishing to testify? Seeing none. Um with that, I'll suspend the rules. Um for CIP today, we all have our big handout. We're gonna go through um in order to get uh some of the departments out earlier. We're gonna start with fire, police, and chemo, and then we're gonna go to public works. Um they don't have a lot of projects on the list, so um I think we can get them all pretty fast. Um so that's the order for today. We're gonna be starting on page four of the sheet. Fire is the second line item on it. Um so um any questions on the fire line item from the members. Oh, page six, sorry. I might need to borrow somebody's glasses. I think that's the only thing I don't have questions on. Number one hundred. Um is it possible just to have them come up here? Just work explained that. Uh line item number one oh five. I'm assuming that's I don't know what HIB. That's their new crowd. Hi, good morning. Totosaki Public Works. Uh would it be okay to start just with an overview of how we put this together? Oh, sure. Okay. Um so it is organized by uh department or managing agency. So I know we're we already jumped to fire on uh it's our page six page four. Oh, it's our page six. I didn't look at the number. Okay, good. Uh and then so the columns on the far the colored columns on the far right. So yeah, we get the the gray column is the approved ordinance from last year, and then the spend down in purple, the current balance as of February. It may have changed since then, but um separate pr pretty close if if it's not exact, and then uh the proposed increase or decrease in green, and then the proposed ordinance for 2027 in blue. Um I did just want to highlight, I know we're going to fire police and key mo this morning, um, but for the overall for the whole report. Um in the purple, you are gonna see some um zeros as far as spend down, but I just did want to express that um doesn't necessarily mean zero progress. Um you'll see by the status updates that there's quite a bit of progress in each project, and then we're gonna have the subject matter experts for everything to explain if there's any questions. Okay. So on the helicopter hangar, um where are we at in that? Seems like that's been a while. I can answer this question, Roger Mills, Deputy Fire Chief Cliff Department. Um right now we just finished up the final phase of um drafting planning and all the other stuff, so we're gonna send out the IFB for the actual construction of the hangar. So this uh 2010 is just the design. Yes. Okay. And then I don't see the construction of the hangar on the costing here. Are we gonna do that in this next budget year?
