Mayor’s recommended CIP list: 25 projects, roughly $34.8M recommended for FY27
Summary
Staff presented the FY27 CIP application totals (74 applications requesting ~ $58M) and the mayor's recommended list of 25 projects totaling about $34.8M; five constituent projects focusing on safety near schools were included in the list.
Rachel Molinari, the capital improvement program manager, presented the FY27 CIP overview and the mayor’s recommended allocations. She said the city received 74 total applications (32 internal city requests and 42 constituent submissions) requesting approximately $58 million. The mayor’s recommended budget includes 25 projects totaling about $34.8 million, of which five are constituent projects largely focused on pedestrian and school‑area safety.
Molinari said the CDCIP board recommended ranking and prioritization guidelines and proposed contingencies in case available funding changed. She noted that historically constituent projects have received about 10% of CIP funding, and the mayor’s recommendations allocate roughly 7% to constituent projects this cycle. The presentation included a geographic map of applications and a department breakdown showing public lands and transportation representing the largest portions of requests.
Council members asked clarifying questions about distribution and asked staff to return with additional project details during upcoming CIP hearings; no allocations were finalized at the briefing.
