10.2   RECOMMENDED 10-YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Based on the system improvements identified in Chapter 8 and the recommended prioritization approach discussed above, Table 10-1 lists improvement projects that are recommended within the next 10 years, the budget required to complete those projects, and the recommended timing of those projects. For budgeting purposes, capital costs for some major capital improvements have been split up into multiple years.
Figure 10-1 summarizes the annual capital expenditures that will be required to support the recommended capital improvement plan. Expenditures have been grouped by major category for reference.

Figure 10-1
10-year Expenditures
 
For comparison purposes, Figure 10-1 also includes the recommended sustainable level of funding available for capital improvements based on the calculations in Chapter 9. The table and figure both include an assumed inflation rate of 3% per year. While this is a reasonable estimate of long-term inflation trends, it may not capture current economic conditions. It is recommended that the City closely track inflation over the next few years to see if an adjustment is needed in this regard.
A few conclusions can be made based on Table 10-1 and Figure 10-1:
   •   Long-term Level of Funding -Based on feedback from City staff comments, it is our understanding that recommended level of funding is significantly above historical levels of funding. While the City's historic level of funding for capital projects may have been adequate in the past, a healthy increase in investment is projected to be needed in the future. As the service area ages and more assets begin to reach the end of their expected life, it will be important that funding levels related specifically to rehabilitation and replacement increase and be a priority for the City.
   •   Short-term Level of Funding - In general, it looks like the system needs identified in this master plan can be accomplished within the range of sustainable funding identified for the system. This is good news as it means that the City does not have much deferred maintenance to catch up on. As long as the City adequately funds its system at the sustainable levels identified here, it should be able to maintain the quality level of service its residents have come to expect. The one notable exception to this overall conclusion is in the first few years when significant expenditures associated with storage will require investment above and beyond recommended long-term funding levels. In this case, it is recommended that the City consider bonding for at least a portion of these costs to address cash flow needs and keep annual expenditures consistent with long-term funding recommendations.
