Any changes to the operating budget due to implementation of a project <br />should be calculated and included separately in the City budget. <br /> <br />Staff within the Engineering and Transportation Department initially score each project <br />in each category. A CIP committee comprised of all department heads and the City <br />Manager then reviews and modifies the project scores. A list of all projects, with initial <br />scores in each category is located in appendix 2. <br /> <br />All 8 scoring categories may not be equally important and their relative importance may <br />change over time. In consideration of this, weights are applied to the scores in each <br />category. Category weights are distributed per the following schedule. <br /> <br />Table 1 CIP Category Weights <br /> <br />Description Weight Notes <br />Critically Important 15 2 categories <br />Very Important 10 4 categories <br />Important 5 2 categories <br /> <br /> <br />The CIP committee considers the current state of the City and results of the public survey <br />described below and initially sets weights for each scoring category. A proposed <br />distribution of weights is brought to council with the project list and associated project <br />scores, for review and adjustment. A list of all unfunded projects, with initial weighted <br />scores is located in appendix 4. <br /> <br />During calendar year 2016, 620 members of the public completed a survey ranking the <br />importance of funding a variety of infrastructure items. Survey results are shown in <br />appendix 3, the top three categories based on average scores are roadway pavement, <br />parks, and libraries. The category receiving the most #1 votes is roadway pavement. <br /> <br /> <br />24
