ITEM EXPLANATION: The City of Carlsbad's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is one of the important planning tools available to the City. The CIP provides a long picture of how the City will allocate available resources to a variei projects that will affect the safety, environment and quality of lifc Carlsbad residents. This year's CIP continues with the same format established in 1987-88 includes these features: - Complete lists of all capital projects needed through buildout - Project descriptions and location maps - Use of growth management standards in CIP planning and scheduli The proposed CIP includes 158 projects totaling $322 mill ion spannin! years between 1988-89 and buildout. The entire program is funded fi combination of sources depending heavily on development-re1 ated fees. City Library, Las Palmas acquisition, development of Macario Canyon Park the ultimate construction of a City Hall facility have been funded using Some projects will benefit from developer assisted financing. All projects are included in the program on a pay-as-you-go basis. Growth management standards have been used as the driving force ir development of a phasing plan for this CIP. Each project included in th was weighted against the Growth Management Program standards to dete approximate timing. 0 a PAGE 2 OF AGENDA BILL # Tf4-3 The operating costs of projects shown in the CIP have been projected compared with available operating revenue. Starting in 1987-88, Council some actions in order to insure fund availability in future years. Fun new operating costs will force the City into a conservative operating mod( the next couple of years. The CIP being presented to Council is intended to be a working document k can be modified or adjusted as the Council sees fit. The final CIP wil brought back to Council in two to three weeks (depending on the exten changes made during the workshop meeting) for a public hearing and adopt FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact ofthe CIP is very broad and pervasive. The funding foi majority of projects depends on development revenue. If, however, develor does not occur, the City may defer projects. There are several cases \r the City has committed to the construction of a project, such as the lit and some park projects. For these projects to proceed, a flow of funds be necessary. Some development activity will be necessary to support 1 committed projects. The sewer construction fund appears to have some funding problems later it CIP. The City Engineer has completed the Sewer Master Plan which call: debt financing the Encina Treatment Plant. This has created CIP def- which will need to be corrected with fee increases. The PFF has a shorl of funds in 1991-92 and 1992-93. This may be corrected in future CIP’ more current development activity can be used in projecting revenues. EXHIBITS : 1. Capital Improvement Program Summary 2. Resol uti on No. f7434 adopting the Capital Improvement Program and appropriating funds. 3. Memo from Senior Management Analyst dated January 26, 1989. e a EXHIBIT CITY OF CARLSBAD EXHIBIT I CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM SUMMARY Goals The 1988-89 Capital Improvement Program has been built around four basic ( that set the tone for prioritizing projects, sequencing funding and alloci resources. 1. Growth Management Program - Projects required to meet service level stanc set by the Growth Management Program should be included in the CIP bas1 the timing of projected demand. The order of importance is: A) city. needs, B) quadrant-wide needs, and C) zone needs. Community Needs - Projects required to satisfy a general community need are not covered as part of the Growth Management Program should be inc' in the CIP and ranked according to the relative importance of each faci' 3. Opportunity - When possible, the City should take advantage of fun( timing or other opportunities related to the construction of cal projects. Total Program - The CIP should provide information on the total City prc from the present to buildout, showing the phasing and funding of projects to allow the Council to understand the relationship betweer projects with the CIP. CIP Proqram - Years 1 to 5 The CIP covers a period of thirty or more years (through buildout) in ' blocks of time: Years 1 to 5, Years 6 to 10, and Years 11 to buildout. projects scheduled in Years 1 to 5 have been broken down into a year-by phasing plan which details the progress and funding of each project. The highlights of the first five years of the CIP are summarized in the folli pages grouped by project type. Issues 1. These goals are as follows: 2. 4. Project Priority and Phasing - The scheduling of capital projects has based on the priorities and demands outlined in the goals listed above. City Council may find that projects should be scheduled differently to various needs that may not have been considered. As this resched occurs, consideration must be given to the City's funding capabilities some projects are moved forward, other projects must be moved back in to allow proper use of existing resources. e e -. Recommended Action - Council should review project timing for consist with existing needs and demands. 2. Fundinq - With the exception of the General Capital Construction and Drainage fund, the first year of the CIP is fully funded. During the fo and fifth years, 1991-92 and 1992-93, of the CIP, the PFF shows a nega ending balance. Beginning in the 1993-1998 time frame, the PFF bal becomes positive and continues in this mode through buildout.At build some Drainage Funds and the Sewer Fund contain negative balances. The of development will continue to control the flow of funds availablc support CIP projects. Recommended Action: 1) Balance the GCC via a transfer of funds from General Fund unappropriated reserves. 2) Review the CIP in 1989-90 and the current project scheduling against more current development re1 activity. 3) Do not pursue Drainage projects until adequate funds be available. 4) No action should be taken at this time to revise sewer f Council will be asked to consider a fee increase in early 1989. 5) Cot should be aware that the CIP schedule depends heavily on development re1 revenues. Changes in the CIP may become necessary if revenues fall t projected 1 eve1 s. DeveloDer Assisted Financing - This year’s CIP demonstrates projects v will be occurring with developer assisted funding. This approach to Cay Construction wi 11 a1 1 ow projects to occur before the City would normally funds available. The financing agreements also contain City payoffs v can occur when funds are available. Recommended Action - Allow that certain development related funds deficit balances with the understanding that the City will need devel assistance to accomplish certain projects. 3. 0 0 CIVIC PROJECTS Below is a summary of noteworthy projects occurring within the Civic Proje category. Library - S. Carlsbad will begin with the land purchase in 1988-89. Additi funds to cover the construction are needed for 25 years for debt ser payments. This project has been given priority as the City currently i short of the established standard for city-wide library services. Las Palmas has been purchased and debt service payments are shown for the nine years. Additional funds are needed in order to complete the Fire Stations #1 ar Remodeling.

LL 2622 EL AGUlLA LANE CARLSBAD, CA 92009 0 f February 7, 1989 Good evening Mayor Lewis and Members of Council. My name Joan Kindle and I reside at 2622 El Aguila Lane in Carlsbad. represent the friends of Carrillo Ranch. The Carrillo Ranch : associated with the life of a person who was significant in Carlsbad's past and connected to the broad patterns of the h: Of California. This valuable cultural resource, with its background buildings, embodies the distinctive characteristic early California in its method of construction and artistic complements. The opportunity for preservation of history in Southern California through the Carrill0 legend has been our5 many years; an opportunity I might add, that is unique to Carlsbad. But progress has been slow and I am here to report are being criticized for the delay. The admirable efforts of Housing and Redevelopment Department and the Historic Presen Commission must certainly meet with your approval. The forthc State grant monies for analysis and stabilization they have t so diligently to secure are an important first step. However City's initial restoration money is not scheduled to be alloc until the 1992/93 fiscal year .... three more years away. Compl of the project .... with the Ranch open to the public .... will r realized until 1998. This beautiful facility will have been i City's hands for 20 years. Why deny our children the rare chc to learn history in a laboratory setting or deny their hard-working parents a retreat from the fast-lane pace they r keep or deny those in their golden years a chance to reflect 0 .c * -2- i. the past and volunteer as docents? Carlsbad has the most beaL parks I've seen for a city of our size. In its own way, Carri Ranch can be the finest and most comprehensive of them all ... passive historic park site of extraordinary imagination and innovation .... done only as Carlsbad can do it. And so, tonight I ask you to accelerate all of the CIP k elements for the 10 acre portion of Carrillo Ranch. It will represent a gesture of good faith to those who believe that history plays an important role and gives balance to life in wonderful community. Thank you.
