City unveils proposed five‑year Capital Improvement Plan totaling $249.3 million
Summary
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.
South Ogden staff presented an introductory overview of the proposed five‑year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for fiscal years 2026–2030 during the May 6 council work session, describing project counts, funding sources and the review schedule leading to adoption.
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.
