The Stormwater Fund has funded stormwater improvement since the 2015 retirement <br />stormwater bonds. The Utilities Infrastructure Fund was established during 2016 for the replacement of <br />water, sanitary sewer, and fiber optic infrastructure. Lastly, the Street Improvement and Debt Service <br />Plan is the combined activity of the annual street improvement funds and their related debt service <br />funds. <br /> <br />Notable updates by Fund <br /> <br />Buildings Improvement Fund <br />o Central Park Shelter painting and replacing Park signage has been completed, upgrading security <br />cameras is underway. <br />o Obtained quotes to paint the exterior and interior of Public Works garage and Fire Station in <br />2020. Buildings are each approximately 15 years old. <br />o 2020 Placeholder for the replacement of the City Hall reader sign. Have been deferring <br />replacement and continue to repair as long as feasible. Cost of repairs have been minor in <br />amount. Software and hardware to manage sign’s messaging is dated and maybe the determining <br />factor for replacement vs physical asset itself. <br />o 2020 Placeholder for the replacement a roof top air conditioning unit for City Hall. The eventual <br />replacement of these units and the roof will be coordinated so the roof lags the unit’s installation. <br />o Benefits of upgrading HVAC Controls for 5 RTU will be reviewed prior to replacement. Cost for <br />upgrading controls has yet to be determined. <br /> <br />Capital Equipment Fund <br />o Replacement schedule for Patrol cars is in the process of being extended to a 4 year cycle. The <br />Police Chief noted he felt comfortable with extension given the City’s maintenance program. If <br />the translon to a 4 year replacement cycle proves to be reasonable the savings are estimated at <br />$300,000-$400,000 over 15 years. Patrol cars scheduled for purchased in 2019 are being <br />purchased in 2020. <br />o The Fire Department will be purchasing 7-8 turnout gear sets in 2020 due to wear and turnover <br />/ size adjustment needs.
