Suffolk planning commission gets first look at $472M five‑year capital plan; schools, roads and water highlighted
Summary
Planning staff presented the proposed FY27–36 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), showing roughly $472 million in five‑year planned expenditures with priorities including schools, transportation projects, water‑system expansion and public‑safety equipment; commission members asked for clarifications before a January recommendation to council.
City staff presented the proposed FY27–36 Capital Improvement Plan to the Planning Commission on Dec. 16, describing a five‑year recommended spending plan of about $472 million (requests initially totaled roughly $800 million). The CIP presentation framed priorities by department and noted a 10‑year outlook for out‑year projects.
Stephanie Wells, who introduced the CIP, said the document is "a plan and not a budget," and outlined the schedule: the commission will review and recommend the first five years to City Council, which will hold a public hearing in February, then adopt the plan as part of the FY27 budget process.
