The plan matters because it outlines capital priorities for roads, utilities, buildings and parks over five years and establishes the first‑year funding proposed for FY26, which administration said would align with the annual budget review and enable project planning and grant applications.

“It's the introductory presentation for the proposed 5 year capital improvement plan for 2026 through 2030,” the presenter said, describing the document as a large packet that lists project costs, administration rankings and which strategic plan directives projects align with.

Staff said the proposed CIP contains 92 projects, including 27 new projects, with total proposed funding of $249,300,000 across the five years and first‑year FY26 funding of about $29,700,000. The presenter noted that two projects from last year's CIP — a traffic signal at 1100 North and Monroe and a Community Field House — had not been determined to conform to the general plan by the planning commission; those projects remain in the proposed document but had no funding proposed in FY26 and will be resubmitted for planning‑commission review if administration later seeks funding.

Staff described major funding sources the CIP relies on, including general‑fund BDO/lease revenue, state and federal grants (for example FAA funds for airport projects), enterprise funds (utilities, airport, golf), road funds and RDA/TIF and bond proceeds where applicable. The presenter said the planning commission reviewed the CIP in April and forwarded a determination of compliance for most projects; those two projects lacking a determination were left in the book without FY26 funding.

The schedule staff discussed: departmental presentations during May work sessions, a council public hearing set tentatively for June 17 (staff indicated June 17 as the adoption hearing date in packet materials) and a fall opportunity for council members to rank projects to inform administration’s priorities for future budgets.

Council members asked about ramp grants for specific parks and how prior appropriations (such as ARPA‑funded wages repurposed to CIP last year) would appear in the spreadsheets; staff clarified that the 5‑year CIP shows proposed FY26 and future funding and that some previously appropriated amounts will be outside of the FY26 CIP spreadsheet until budget amendments are made.

Staff encouraged council members to review the full CIP packet in the budget materials and to raise questions during the departmental work‑session presentations that follow.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Ogden City Council Work Session - May 6, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","City staff presented an introductory overview of a proposed five‑year Capital Improvement Plan (FY2026–2030) that lists 92 projects with proposed total funding of $249.3 million and first‑year FY26 funding of about $29.7 million; planning‑commission review and a public‑hearing schedule were discussed.","taxTitle","South Ogden City Council, South Ogden , Weber County, Utah","taxId",24541,"location","Utah","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6246734,"City proposes shifting CDBG‑CV funds from small‑business loans to public improvements; 30‑day comment period set",338,3022000,3360000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3216220-d1c37a8cd2a05a9fd31ea9d6c88c1ba9&start=3022&end=3360","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3216220-d1c37a8cd2a05a9fd31ea9d6c88c1ba9/thumbnail_3022000.jpg","/articles/6246734/Utah/City-proposes-shifting-CDBGCV-funds-from-smallbusiness-loans-to-public-improvements-30day-comment-period-set","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6246734-87bd012a9de0ef6bc71d8895d8304a0a/orig.mp4?Expires=1775294114&Signature=X0BLBI4fRLUhNW782tGhEtF7Alj~mgk-9D9HwPjNW7i-FFKYzQw1bN3asBbJZ9o0IR2ssUlzUycCZ3M0~pEyMyiPm1Qer89Swldk~SD1R6B9oZ4cIc2eldtIdq608D8T0t-jr9jFEs13e8QvR1LBzBcNFIa6YMicv8gWyH1fg6qvICCGFmiJgZhg-zul6GXi1btgoR9wASde6lf~UCTH5LpiqvCmGu8toZP9HoyJXMqxhm1Q-WtqShCWesjlA80N~YhHyfuf0ShU1AJ1nXfR~hH1e23pzV8ekBTwwj~Wjvfmk24NwDqUXUlFBnYy0x2AEB-mdBdu3UtmPZ8H1RlRCw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City staff presented a proposed amendment to the city's five‑year consolidated plan and the FY2021 annual action plan at the May 6 South Ogden City Council work session, asking the council to approve a shift of remaining CDBG‑CV (CARES Act) funds from small‑business assistance to public‑improvement projects.

The change matters because Community Development Block Grant Coronavirus (CDBG‑CV) funds are federally restricted and must be authorized in the consolidated plan to be eligible for HUD-funded activities. Staff said the funds must be spent before May 2026 and that unused business‑loan demand has declined as other emergency assistance sources filled need during the pandemic.

“This is not the con plan we've been talking about recently… In 2021, the city received additional grant money from the CARES Act fund. This was called CDBG CV,” Jeremy Smith said during the presentation. Smith explained that staff propose moving leftover CDBG‑CV money into public improvements that could help the city prepare for or respond to future public‑health emergencies (examples included sidewalks, trails or other design changes to support social distancing).

Staff described the proposed budget shift in the amendment as moving available CDBG‑CV dollars into a $500,000 public‑improvements line with remaining funds allocated to administration. The staff presentation said previous allocations had included roughly $426,197 to microenterprise loans and a similar amount to small‑business loans, with about $94,007 allocated for administration; most business loan dollars were not fully spent.

The citizen advisory committee reviewed and approved the proposed amendment on April 30, staff said. The council work session materials set a 30‑day public comment period beginning May 7 and ending June 7, with a public hearing scheduled for June 10. If the council approves the amendment after the hearing, staff will submit the change to HUD.

Jeremy Smith told the council that specific candidate projects for the public‑improvements category had not been finalized; he said the work must meet CDBG‑CV eligibility requirements and demonstrate a connection to pandemic preparedness or response, such as infrastructure that supports social distancing.

The item at the work session was a presentation and request to proceed with the citizen‑participation steps; the council did not vote on the amendment at the May 6 meeting.","City staff proposed an amendment to the five‑year consolidated plan and the FY2021 annual action plan to reallocate remaining CDBG‑CV (CARES Act) funds from microenterprise/small‑business loans to public improvements intended to increase preparedness for future pandemics; a 30‑day public comment period and June 10 public hearing were announced.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6246738,"City staff propose $118.4 million budget opening to fund waterline, airport, IT and capital projects",1647,1167000,2814000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3216220-d1c37a8cd2a05a9fd31ea9d6c88c1ba9&start=1167&end=2814","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3216220-d1c37a8cd2a05a9fd31ea9d6c88c1ba9/thumbnail_1167000.jpg","/articles/6246738/Utah/City-staff-propose-1184-million-budget-opening-to-fund-waterline-airport-IT-and-capital-projects","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6246738-0e1af32b89af16971e80b4422e22d5bd/orig.mp4?Expires=1775294114&Signature=V1h2v4SfIR4ObJuvjU4nzb1NkfzzXJidS8XJWy5uTPpIis2PhLcLyTfrfv2LrhIyWaZd9uJuBKBcQAdHDzsJPua3FiKs~etC8VbTIniYu05ypdIZdMR-kD01XU6mPGA82UrB1vJnoSkJlXdKMhONbpTKj4I6MgpHoHgg4MlUgH2Y-H1wFCjpAg2hNAXkgmTghicw3OExY1QaZNg-v2I16pNG5KL5PHf1sVV5-KCOZfAgaW48PW628XdXqzUig4uyswByV2Lzat7ildYJSa5pwTdtqChweNcm2Ct9ohryZJubit~Mf9pwJylGXIdg4U0nR534rBTQ-Gl~-0ZjHgtNAA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","South Ogden City staff presented a proposed budget opening totaling $118,395,800 at the May 6, 2025, council work session, saying the package would recognize loan proceeds, grant revenues and excess investment income and move funds across city accounts.

The proposal matters because it would recognize a WIFIA/state loan for the city’s waterline project, provide FAA match and equipment funding for the airport, accelerate IT and facilities replacements, and move money into several capital projects and holding accounts that administration says are needed to proceed with planned work.

“It’s total increase to the city budget of a hundred and 17,000,000 with an additional 646,000 also being increased to the strike force funds. So the total budget action is a hundred and 18,395,800,” the staff presenter said. The package combines amounts carried forward from investment gains with newly recognized state and federal awards.

Key elements described by staff include:

- Water fund: Recognition of state/WIFIA loan proceeds for the waterline project, described in the presentation as an $87,500,000 increase to the water fund to reflect funds received for the project and associated project activity in the canyon.

- General fund transfers and investment earnings: Staff said the city exceeded the 35% fund-balance threshold in the audit by roughly $4,000,000 and now expects to recognize about $3,000,000 in excess interest this year; the two amounts (roughly $7,000,000) would be appropriated and transferred into targeted funds.

- Airport: Staff proposed transferring about $1,400,000 into the airport fund to provide local matches and recognize grant awards for runway and apron work and equipment. The presentation said the city would look to purchase a surplus ARFF (airport rescue and firefighting) truck from Salt Lake City for about $120,000 to add redundancy.

- IT and facilities: A $650,000 transfer to the IT fund was proposed to replace computers that cannot be updated to supported operating systems and to sustain a 3–5 year replacement cycle. Another $400,000 was proposed for facilities to fund HVAC improvements and equipment for a police virtual training room after an unsuccessful grant application.

- Golf fund and Mount Ogden: Staff proposed $400,000 toward irrigation CIP work and $350,000 for replacement of the fence between Mount Ogden Golf Course and Mount Ogden Park. Of the $350,000 fence cost, staff said $260,000 is available from three years of municipal ramp funds and the remaining need is $88,000.

- CIP and buildings: The package includes $700,000 toward roof replacements (Union Station and Golden Hours) and a $2,800,000 holding allocation for Union Station campus and museum work.

- Refuse and fleet: Staff proposed appropriating money to replace refuse trucks in groups (five this year, five next year) and recognizing fleet purchases tied to airport and other equipment needs. The fleet fund increase was described as $1,600,000.

- Grants and other recognitions: The proposal recognizes more than $1 million in newly awarded grants across departments, a clean-fuel grant covering roughly 25% of a new fire truck (about $300,000), and Narrow Gauge Preservation Foundation funds tied to a locomotive inventory. Staff also proposed increasing the strike force fund budget by $646,000 to address an audit finding.

Staff said some funds would be transferred to RDA accounts to cover asbestos removal and demolition for the Aspen Care facility at 2225 Madison and to recognize reimbursements for RDA projects. The RDA budget opening discussion noted $480,000 to be used toward airport terminal improvements from an expired Hinckley-area RDA balance.

Council members asked questions about investment terms, planned materials for the Mount Ogden fence (staff said steel posts and schedule 40 pipe would be used), the timing of refuse truck orders and the source of Centennial celebration funding. Staff explained the Centennial expenses were covered by a mix of general fund contingency and previously recognized grant awards and said the detailed ordinance and budget documents would be before council for formal action.

The item was described as scheduled for formal consideration at the upcoming council meeting on May 20; at the work session it was a staff presentation and discussion only, not a formal council vote.

Administration and staff repeatedly emphasized that portions of the proposed appropriations represent transfers between internal funds and the recognition of grant or loan proceeds rather than new taxes.

The work session packet includes project photos and more line-item detail that staff said would be part of the agenda materials when the council is asked to consider the ordinance.

The council did not take a final vote on the budget opening at the May 6 work session; staff said the ordinance would appear on the May 20 agenda for council consideration.","At a May 6 work session, South Ogden City staff presented a proposed budget opening that would appropriate $118,395,800 across multiple funds, including recognition of an $87.5 million WIFIA/state water loan, airport grant matches, IT and capital maintenance projects. The proposal will be scheduled for council consideration at the May 20 meeting.","actionData","errors"]
