📑UPDATE: West Fargo City Commission Adopts Capital Improvement Plan with 10% Reduction in Use of Special Assessments The West Fargo City Commission Adopted the 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) at their Aug. 5 meeting. The CIP outlines plans for future projects and project funding. West Fargo’s CIP includes utility, street, and infrastructure projects, as well as improvement projects for City-owned facilities. The adopted CIP uses updated project funding guidelines which increase the City’s share of costs for Neighborhood Overlay Projects, Local Reconstruction Projects which include infrastructure work that benefits single neighborhoods, and Regional Reconstruction Projects which include infrastructure work that benefits all residents of West Fargo. “The 2024-2028 CIP reduces the City’s use of special assessments by almost 10% from 2022,”said Dan Hanson, Senior Director of Community & Development Services. “We continue to work to find additional funding sources and methods to reduce the share of project costs that directly impact our taxpayers.” The 2024-2028 CIP includes over $124 million in Federal and State Funding, over $62 million in sales tax, and over $14 million in funding through bonds and other miscellaneous sources. The CIP is a living document, meaning projects may be added or removed based on changes to funding, construction timelines, or future Commission action. The full 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Plan with a listing of projects and funding, can be found at https://lnkd.in/gPatqt2g.
