City of Longmont, Colorado

Population (Year): 100758  (2021)

The City of Longmont is facing several infrastructure challenges, including a growing population, aging water and wastewater systems, and the need for increased transportation options. The city has experienced significant growth in recent years, leading to increased demands on its roads, water treatment plants, and other critical infrastructure. The city is working to address these challenges by investing in new infrastructure projects, including expanding public transportation options, upgrading water and wastewater systems, and improving roadways to accommodate increased traffic. Additionally, the city is focusing on implementing sustainable infrastructure solutions, such as green infrastructure and renewable energy systems, to address both environmental concerns and long-term infrastructure needs.

Sisters Community Park

2024

“Sisters Community Park is located in southeast Longmont south of Quail Campus and east of Wertman Park. The land is currently being managed by Boulder
County for agricultural use, per a previous agreement with the county. This undeveloped community park is not slated for master planning or construction in
the next 5+ years, but a community need could be realized there in the interim.
This proposed project would remove +/- 15 acres from agricultural production and transform it into a temporary bike skills area. The project would be bare
bones – port-o-let, gravel lot and dirt mounds for people to use for their bikes. The community has long desired a facility such as what is proposed, as the one
located near Union Reservoir in years past is no longer there. This use would be clearly defined as temporary, with the possibility that it could be included in
the future Master Plan for the park. The current development of the Wertman Neighborhood Park west of this site and development north of Quail Road add
some interest in use for this area. (SAR)”

How to Read a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for Business Development?

When a city, municipality or state issues a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP),  it can be overwhelming and daunting, but there are a few key things you need to investigate. Let’s start with the definition of CIP – A Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) contains all the individual capital projects, equipment purchases, and major studies for a local government; in conjunction with construction and completion schedules, and in consort with financing plans. The plan provides a working blueprint for sustaining and improving the community’s infrastructures. It coordinates strategic planning, financial capacity, and physical development. A CIP stands at the epicenter of a government’s Planning, Public Works, and Finance departments. When a CIP is issued, it typically includes the following information:

  1. A listing of the capital projects or equipment to be purchased
  2. The projects ranked in order of preference
  3. The plan for financing the projects
  4. A timetable for the construction or completion of the project
  5. Justification for the project
  6. Explanation of expenses for the project

Now, for business development, while the capital plan is interesting, the capital program is for capital expenditures that extends five to ten years beyond the capital budget.  Knowing the difference is important so you can influence upcoming program versus just responding to an RFP.
