§ 153.1342 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM.
   (A)   Generally.
      (1)   The CIP is the mechanism by which the city provides new public facilities and expansion of the capacity of public facilities, which are needed to accommodate existing and anticipated future population and employment. Through the CIP, the city intends to use all reasonable means to provide the public facilities and services needed to accommodate new growth and development consistent with the availability of revenue sources, and contributions for capital improvements provided by state or federal sources or applicants, taking into account physical, environmental and topographical constraints on the expansion of the capacity of public facilities.
      (2)   The CIP shall:
         (a)   Prioritize the need for public facilities subject to this section;
         (b)   Estimate the cost of improvements for deficiencies or repairs for which the city has fiscal responsibility;
         (c)   Analyze the fiscal capability of the city to finance and construct improvements;
         (d)   Establish financial policies to provide for the funding of improvements from grants, development exactions and impact fees, dedications of land, taxes, assessments, rates and charges; and
         (e)   Schedule the funding, prioritization and construction of improvements in a manner necessary to ensure that capital improvements are provided when required based on needs identified in the Comprehensive Plan.
   (B)   Capital improvements data requirements. The CIP shall be based upon:
      (1)   Public facility needs as identified in the Comprehensive Plan. Where the Comprehensive Plan does not identify a need for public facilities within a given category, public facility needs shall be determined on the basis of projected population and employment growth as set forth in the Comprehensive Plan;
      (2)   The geographic service area and location of major system components for each public facility shall be identified; and
      (3)   Existing revenue sources and funding mechanisms available for capital improvements financing shall be inventoried for each public facility.
   (C)   Capital improvements analysis requirements. The CIP shall be based upon the following analyses:
      (1)   Current local practices that guide the timing, phasing, priority and location of construction, extension or increases in capacity of each public facility;
      (2)   The fiscal implications of existing deficiencies and future needs for each type of public facility. This analysis shall be based on the needed improvements, as identified by applying the LOS within each impact area, and shall address the relative priority of need among facility types;
      (3)   The costs of needed capital improvements for mitigation of existing deficiencies, replacement and new growth needs;
      (4)   The basis of cost estimates; and
      (5)   An assessment of the service provider’s ability to finance capital improvements based upon anticipated population and revenues, including:
         (a)   Forecasting of revenues and expenditures for five years;
         (b)   Projections of debt service obligations for currently outstanding bond issues;
         (c)   Projection of ad valorem tax base, assessment ratio and ad valorem tax rate;
         (d)   Projections of other tax bases and other revenue sources, such as development agreement financing, dedications, impact fees and service charges;
         (e)   Projection of operating cost considerations; and
         (f)   Projection of debt capacity.
   (D)   Requirements for capital improvements implementation. The CIP shall contain:
      (1)   The five-year schedule of year-by-year capital improvements that the city has accepted to reduce existing deficiencies, to remain abreast of replacements and to meet future demand;
      (2)   Project description and general location; and
      (3)   A list of projected costs and revenue sources by type of public facility for the five-year period. (See Table 153.1342(A) and Table 153.1342(B).)
