Director Initial 0 It', -fiAZEN HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: August 7, 2009 TO: Financial Planning and Analysis Committee FROM: Sue Iverson, Finance Director SUBJECT: 2010 — 2014 Capital Improvement Plan BACKGROUND As part of the 2010 budget process, a five-year capital improvement plan is prepared. City Council and •staff have been working on the current plan over the last several months. Further discussions will be held at the August City Council Worksession as part of the 2010 Budget process. DISCUSSION The attached document is the preliminary plan that was given to the City Council at their July Worksession. Discussions on this plan began at the July meeting, but based on Council feedback and requests, discussions are scheduled to continue at their August Worksession. Staff has been working to change the document from a spreadsheet to an actual plan document that includes project details, funding, and justifications. Please note that we have only begun to fill in all the data to complete this document and that it is a work -in -process. As we have not finished Council discussions, this plan is not yet finalized. Staff is also working on the 2010 Operating Budgets, but do not yet have a preliminary copy completed at this time. We hope to have the preliminary plan completed before the meeting next Tuesday so that we can incorporate these numbers into the funding numbers and fund balances. We are still awaiting numbers from the State Department of Revenue and other agencies in order to complete these numbers. These estimates are then used to prepare a long-range financial plan to look at appropriate fund balances and funding strategies. As staff is currently working on the 2010 Operating Budget and Council directed changes to the Capital Improvement Plan from the preliminary discussions, we will bring these updates and a preliminary long- range financial plan to the meeting on Tuesday for discussions. • ACTION No action required. Informational information for purposes of discussion. \\Metro-inet\ardenhills\Admin\Committees & CommissionsTPA08-11-09-C1P Plan.doc
