On May 18, 2026 the City of Clark council approved the mayor’s appointments to a new Capital Improvements Board, establishing a formal body to oversee or advise on capital projects and funding, including discussion of a potential penny capital sales tax. This follows a May 5 council discussion about the overall capital improvement process and implementing a capital sales tax, which was tabled while Mayor Kerry Kline reaches out to community members for participation. The board includes local stakeholders such as Melissa Nesheim, Todd Warkenthien, Greg Marx, Karrie Moeller, and Justin Bowers, suggesting it will play a significant role in prioritizing projects like the new pool, park upgrades, streets work, and building improvements that are already reflected in restricted fund balances.With no specific consulting or program management vendor identified, the city appears to be in early-stage planning for a multi-project capital program. Vendors specializing in capital improvement planning, public finance, project management, and community engagement can help the board develop a defensible multi-year CIP, funding strategy, and implementation roadmap.
