<br />Background:
<br />. The City Manager presented the Proposed Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
<br />for FY2012 - FY2016, and the funding for year one appropriating the necessary funds

<br />Discussion:

<br />April 5, April 12, April 19, and April 26 and a budget public hearing was held on April 12
<br />and another public hearing is scheduled for May 4, 2011 to receive public comments on
<br />the five-year CIP and Fleet Management Plan and on funding for year-one of the CIP.
<br />. For FY12, upon adoption by Council the funding is authorized by appropriation.
<br />. Years 2013-2016 of the CIP and Fleet Management Plan are approved but not
<br />appropriated years used for long-term planning purposes and are approved as planning
<br />years.

<br />added its Fleet Management Plan to the CIP and as such funding for the first year of the
<br />plan is by appropriation and years two through five are approved for long-term financial
<br />planning purposes.
