Report
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors adopt a resolution approving the County of Monterey Capital Improvement Program Five-Year Plan (CIP) for Fiscal Years 2026-27 through 2030-31.
SUMMARY:
The County of Monterey Capital Improvement Program Five-Year Plan (CIP) is a planning document that includes capital projects with a value over $100,000 and a useful life of more than one year which are managed by Public Works, Facilities and Parks (PWFP), Natividad Medical Center (NMC) and technology upgrade project managed by Information Technology Department (ITD). The attached FY 2026-27 CIP includes “active” projects with full or partially-secured funding which are anticipated to start or continue in FY 2026-27. Staff will return at a later date for further discussion and comment on unfunded project needs and potential funding as a supplement to the adopted CIP.
DISCUSSION:
The CIP sets forth public projects essential to maintain and improve County public facilities and facilitate the orderly implementation of the County General Plan. Each year, the CIP is updated and reviewed considering County needs, priorities, and available funding. A long-term CIP provides several benefits:
- Prioritizes needs and establishes an orderly basis for sound budgetary decisions
- Focuses attention on both mandated and community goals, needs, and capabilities for best use of public funds and establishes a long-term plan to address future needs
- Improves the likelihood of obtaining State and Federal financing assistance for projects
- Encourages project coordination between the County and public agencies which serves to reduce scheduling conflicts
- Allows private enterprise to relate and/or align their projects to the CIP
