The adopted FY 2026-27 budget and CIP lay out over $5.6M in capital outlay, with especially large programs for water and wastewater system upgrades, new reservoirs, lift station modernization, and mains in the West 3rd Street corridor. Individual listed projects include a new 1,000,000-gallon reservoir and property acquisition, Reedy Creek raw water pipeline improvements, WTP electrical and clarifier upgrades, multiple transmission main and PRV projects, and extensive wastewater lift station, force main, and treatment plant work. No vendors are identified yet; the budget and CIP establish scope and funding envelopes that the City will now have to translate into designs, engineering, and construction contracts over the next five-plus years. This creates a pipeline of opportunities for engineering, construction, controls/SCADA, and specialty equipment vendors to help phase, design, and deliver the program and assist staff with permitting, funding packaging, and constructability planning.
