County CFO (presenting staff lead) opened the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) day, framed the session as an informal, conversational review of a tentative recommended CIP covering facilities, drainage, and later road and bridge projects, and emphasized the plan is tentative—not a final recommendation.
Sedgwick County staff presented a tentative five-year Capital Improvement Plan that proposes about $88.1 million for facilities and drainage (largely bond-funded) and a separately developed roads and bridges plan, highlighting rising construction costs, prioritized bridge repairs, and requests for more EMS capacity. Commissioners pressed staff on pavement strategy, district needs for paved section-line roads, and EMS/fire station placement; staff proposed follow-up workshops and an Advanced Plans Committee review on June 11.
