Major construction projects stimulate
the economy by putting people to work.
The construction workers spend their income in local businesses. This report conveys the results of our review
of planned capital projects to advance as many projects as possible to
stimulate the local economy.
Our bond committee process requires
that departments obtain approval to move projects forward from their individual
Bond Committee Chairs. To assist them in
this, staff requests that the Mayor and Council endorse the outlined schedule
for advancing capital projects.
This item is for information, discussion and action.
