Summary
The City Council approved a five‑year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) covering 147 projects and a FY2025‑26 CIP budget of $38.7 million, and authorized a $50,000 appropriation for an environmental site assessment at 230 North Main Street.
The Milpitas City Council on June 3 adopted the city’s FY 2026–2030 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), approving a five‑year plan that includes 147 projects and an estimated budget of $246 million.
Liehak, public works division manager, presented the CIP and a timeline of outreach and approvals. Staff recommended funding 38 projects in FY 2025–26 with a total FY25‑26 CIP appropriation of approximately $38.7 million. The five‑year needs assessment in the presentation identified roughly $657 million in infrastructure needs, including $242 million for replacement and repair of existing infrastructure and $415 million for new infrastructure needs.
Staff highlighted completed projects and near‑term construction: park and playground rehabilitation, an updated council chambers audio‑visual system, multiple resurfacing projects, a Dempsey Road water line replacement (construction under way), fabrication of a modular building for Fire Station No. 1, and the McCandless well project. The presentation also proposed $1.7 million from the Park Fund to renovate an aging playground (presentation named the project "Singapore playground innovation project") and recommended $100,000 for temporary improvements and sound‑mitigation measures at Hall Park pickleball courts.
The council heard public comment supporting the CIP and the recommended appropriation for a phase‑2 environmental site assessment at 230 North Main Street; staff asked the council to appropriate $50,000 from Midtown Park Fund to amend a professional services agreement for that work.
Councilmember Chua moved to adopt the CIP and the recommended appropriation; Councilmember Lian seconded. The motion carried unanimously.
Staff will proceed with the projects funded in the adopted CIP and the proposed amendments to professional services agreements; capital project schedules and funding sources will be reported through the regular project and budget monitoring process.
