Capital Improvement Program
What is a Capital Improvement Project?
A capital improvement project is defined as any public facility project
that improves or adds value to Tigard's infrastructure; costs $50,000
or more; and has a useful life or extends the useful life of a facility
for 5 years or more. Examples of capital improvement projects include
land/right-of-way purchases, building renovations, park development or
improvement of parks facilities; construction of streets and sidewalks;
rehabilitation and construction of sanitary sewer, storm, and water systems.
What is the process?
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) consists of prioritized public facility
projects beginning with the current year and projected for four additional
years. The CIP is updated every year through a process that is separate
but parallel to the development of the City budget.
The annual CIP is updated and coordinated by the City CIP Management
Team that engages all City departments to identify needed public projects.
Not all capital projects within the CIP can be funded due to limited budgets.
Instead, money is allocated to projects that are considered high priority or
have available grant funding.
How can the public get involved?
The public may formally be involved in CIP development/update by providing
comments at Planning Commission review meetings and public hearings held in
February and March. The public may also provide input at Budget Committee
and City Council review meetings and hearings held in May/June.
