team that does all the capital projects across all three of the utilities water Wastewater storm water and flood
property acquisition and Capital Improvements associated with those 47 miles of creeks and drainageways
our current 2024 budget is approximately $16 million with most expenditures being predominantly devoted to CIP work
will IT Crowd out um expenditures for Capital Improvements yeah great question
we're not necessarily anticipating um at this moment in time a bunch more bonding in the storm water and flood utility
the rates that we set um and a big part of it for utilities as you see with the city budget process
we do a six-year CIP um every year and it's it's it's rolling on six years
we've got about $60 million budgeted for this year in 2024 does that include
I've been uh having communication with Boulder housing Partners
as well as our um rec centers is is another way that we can potentially meet those folks
how do we also make sure that you know people with disabilities and some and many of the other
was approved by City Council in December 2015 and was split in two phases
on and near the property commonly refer to a CU South and that's what we're showing in this rendition
this project is intended to protect life and safety by addressing flooding in areas known as the West Valley
the other process step involves an annexation of essentially this the same property
the reason that we're doing that is that the annexation will reduce jurisdictional complexities
than what we were talking about a couple years ago with the CU South annexation process
we are um also going to be doing development of lay of um dorm or student housing
in going back to the annexation agreement the elements of that that are re relevant to the flood project
it's consistent with vision zero um and we've actually uh advocated for this for many years
reduce the barriers to development of accessory dwelling units
it's a bill called Transit oriented communities and it has to do with increasing the average Zone density in transit related areas
there's a bill that would prohibit occupancy limits based on familiar relationships
would require a Regional Housing assessments be conducted by the state
land use reform affordable housing really should just be affordable housing
hugely important um clean energy plans that would require energy utilities to reach 100% carbon free
our city may still want to incentivize it so an amendment that would clarify
they're saying don't require owner occupancy because they just want to have build as many adus
launch the the second greenhouse gas uh I think it's called the road map road map 2.0
council's policy state in position to speak specifically about reducing Statewide greenhouse gas emissions
specifically on the issue of of homelessness uh funding uh our C our previous council did add a position
I was thinking about it more in terms of um kind of physical accessibility
in light of the 600 families we know are unhoused
they actually fund um indigenous rapo youth and Elders uh to have uh to fund the nature-based experiences
and affordable housing but um always keeping an eye on renters
