CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PLAN REVIEW
Director of Public Works /City Engineer Steve Lillehaug outlined the proposed changes for the
2011 -2025 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) which included minor adjustments, revisions, and
additions as follows:
2011 - Storm Water Ponds 12 -002 and 12 -003 dredging were shifted from 2010 to better package a
pond dredging project. These ponds are located in the Center Brook Golf Course and will coincide
with the 2011 Storm Water Pond 12 -005 Rebab, which is also located in the golf course.
2011 - Willow Lane Park Youth Soccer Field Improvement was added to accommodate a potential
grant funding application in 2011.
2011 - East Palmer Lake Neighborhood Reconstruction Project was shifted from 2012.
Advancement of this project is being proposed in an effort to capitalize on the continued competitive
construction market in an effort to reduce long term costs.
2011 and 2012 - The 2011 West Palmer Park Building Replacement was switched with the 2012
Northport Park Building Replacement. The delay in improvements to Northport Park is
recommended due to the uncertainty of the Northport Park and School. This item will also be
presented for discussion at the next Park Commission meeting.

2014 - The 51 Avenue Reconstruction Project is a portion of the 2010 reconstruction that was
delayed due to the possibility of programming this project to coincide with a future potential project
pertaining to Brooklyn Boulevard. Future coordination will be required with Hennepin County
pertaining to this project.
2016 - Emergency Generator Replacement for Lift Station No. 2 was shifted from 2010 due to a
recent evaluation of the generator and a determination of the extension of its life.
2016, 2017, and 2018 - Water Tower Nos. 1, 2, and 3 painting projects were all delayed and shifted
due to recent evaluations of the water towers.
2017 - Lift Station No. 9 Forcemain Replacement was shifted from 2011 due to a recent evaluation
and a determination that the forcemain was constructed with ductile iron pipe in lieu of cast iron
pipe. Ductile iron pipe has a longer life expectancy than cast iron pipe.
2025 - The 2025 Utility and Street Improvement Projects were added to the CIP. These are the next
anticipated projects that will need to be performed to maintain the City's infrastructure based on an
p P J p tY
evaluation of the age of the infrastructure and past work performed. The Capital Maintenance
Building Program (CMBP) Project coincides with the City's CMBP Plan.
Council and Financial Commissioners discussed these amendments more in detail and the
advantages of advancing some of the projects due to the competitive markets.
Fiscal and Support Services Director Dan Jordet outlined the cash flow with the normal schedule and
with an advanced 2012 project schedule and informed that the most permanent solution would be a
one -time transfer of $250,000 from the Liquor Fund to the Capital Improvement Fund which would
make the Capital Improvement Fund cash flows positive through 2025.

discuss the General Fund Budget.
