The CIP serves two important functions. First, it authorizes capital <br /> appropriations for the next fiscal year. If approved by the Board, County staff will proceed with <br /> implementing these projects during the next fiscal year. The second purpose of the CIP is to plan for the <br /> future. The Plan contains detailed recommendations for capital projects five years into the future and <br /> more general descriptions of projects that would occur in the subsequent five years, projecting a total of <br /> ten years into the future. <br /> Recommended capital expenditures for FY 2017-18 total $27.5 million. Of this amount, $16 million is <br /> recommended for County capital projects, $3.73 million is recommended for proprietary fund spending <br /> including water and sewer projects, Solid Waste, and Sportsplex, and $7.78 million is recommended for <br /> school capital improvements. <br /> The recommended FY 2017-18 CIP represents a decrease of approximately $41 million compared to the <br /> FY2016-17 Approved CIP. The FY2016-17 CIP included the first of three $40 million allocations ($120 <br /> million total) of general obligation bond funding for school capital projects and the first of two $2.5 <br /> million allocations ($5 million total) to fund affordable housing projects. When the bond funds are <br /> excluded from this comparison, the total Recommended FY2017-18 CIP represents a decrease of <br /> approximately$1 million compared to last fiscal year. <br /> This memorandum describes projects that are recommended in the first year of the FY2017-22 CIP and <br /> other significant changes that are recommended compared to the CIP approved last fiscal year. <br /> Continuation Funding <br /> Continuation funding is recommended for projects that are either currently underway or those for <br /> which planning funds were appropriated in prior years. <br />
