Assistant City Manager Miss Burrows told commissioners the ICIP “is a planning tool to establish priorities for anticipated infrastructure projects,” and that city staff had updated requests after meeting with departments and nonprofit partners and reviewing projects that already have funding.

The adopted ICIP lists the animal shelter as the top priority; Burrows said the project has $3,900,000 identified to date and that the shelter still needs “another 2.5 or so” million to complete the remainder of the project. Main Street road improvements between 1st and 8th streets were included on the ICIP with a staff-requested $1.5 million application pending but not guaranteed, Burrows said.

Parks improvements moved up on the priority list. Burrows said the city typically asks for $300,000 annually for parks; this year staff increased that request by $200,000. Commissioners discussed improved LED field lighting for baseball and softball fields, a request raised earlier by the Parks, Recreation and Beautification Committee.

On residential street lighting, Burrows said the city received $200,000 in the last legislative session and used city reserves to cover an additional $100,000 to complete an installation that allowed 22 new lights to be placed. She said the city has another $200,000 from the most recent session but is still awaiting final grant agreements. A map provided to commissioners showed roughly 300 intersections without lights — about 60 intersections per commission district, Burrows said.

The ICIP also lists a $20,000,000 sports/recreation complex at the request of Curry County and a $10,000,000 behavioral health/crisis triage center (noted as underway with anticipated construction activity). Commissioners asked staff to keep separate the police‑department backup generator request ($35,000) from a general backup generator request ($200,000) so funding streams targeted for public safety could be used where eligible.

Commissioner Casaus moved to approve the ICIP as presented; Commissioner Tarson seconded. After brief additional questions about backup power and project sequencing, the commission voted unanimously to adopt Resolution No. 3327-2025.

Why it matters: The ICIP is the city’s prioritized list for capital projects that staff and elected officials use to pursue state and federal funding. Keeping projects on the ICIP makes them eligible for grant programs and helps the city demonstrate readiness if discretionary funds become available.

What’s next: Staff said it will continue to pursue grant agreements and funding opportunities for listed projects, including the pending Main Street application and the residential street‑lighting grants, and will bring implementation items back to the commission as funding becomes available.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Clovis - City Commission - Jul 03, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Clovis City Commission unanimously approved Resolution No. 3327-2025 on July 3, adopting the city’s Infrastructure Capital Improvement Plan (ICIP) for 2027–2031 after staff presented updated project priorities and cost estimates.","taxTitle","Clovis, Curry County, New Mexico","taxId",52795,"location","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":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6552104,"Visitor pitches ‘Concrete Cowboy Walks’ awareness events for brain injury, recommends local partnerships",139,948370,1087790,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5133811-5d839fd203c44e59d84584f763d425ba&start=948&end=1087","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5133811-5d839fd203c44e59d84584f763d425ba/thumbnail_948370.jpg","/articles/6552104/Clovis/Curry-County/New-Mexico/Visitor-pitches-Concrete-Cowboy-Walks-awareness-events-for-brain-injury-recommends-local-partnerships","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6552104-ae255f819d4641efc9f5c1bc1284789a/orig.mp4?Expires=1775269734&Signature=R69iZ5Wgq-kj85N2KxO2ZF2llGE~Vj0mICayHzW0E~doupGk8JLiiUV34Udh0CxsE1bpn2gfVysYwP1qvoaW9RNMNCA~loUkNWyxNqROrkm8Ax4xFUUvobJXoregiqukUV8BaKWsonqh46msz7WuqdU8MqmYaQiZs0zSvvMkJ1wp2yBhH-k99wu4IfFTSJ8QgFxbNZKTahavDCiS~EQ33L8hPtAyQkuvgQdeGPPtkGj9a0TRFJu9n48CTvhcjPjT-Xfq58wmWxfl3LD7FvEMy53RZMgrhC41qnJTOcsP0qBYCARc7AyhP1BFicTXZmZkmG2zzpzq~k-3qifRyGOz4A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Christopher Lloyd, who identified himself as representing Concrete Cowboy Walks in America, told the Clovis City Commission during public comment that his nonprofit is walking across the country to raise awareness for brain injury, trauma recovery and mental health services.

Lloyd described the group’s “healing steps” initiative and asked the commission to consider local events that would connect veterans, students, families, city staff and first responders with local resources, and to promote the 988 crisis line. \"Our mission is rooted in one core belief, healing starts with connection,\" Lloyd said.

Lloyd suggested potential activities in Clovis including community health walks, partnerships with Cannon Air Force Base, schools, churches and VFW posts, resource‑connection activities and service projects such as murals or park cleanups led by residents.

Mayor Morris thanked Lloyd for the presentation and invited further conversation while he was in town. No formal action was taken; the presentation was recorded under receipts of petitions and communications.","A walking awareness nonprofit called Concrete Cowboy Walks in America presented during public comment and asked Clovis leaders to consider community health walks, partnerships and 988 crisis‑line outreach to support brain injury and trauma recovery services.","actionData","errors"]
