The clP is intended to provide a summary of the CITY COUNCIL city's capital investment for the next five years. lt is also intended to stimulate a thought process to determine (a) how the City can use capital and technology to CAROLYN G. GOODMAN MAYOR become more efficient, (b) if it is making the best use of limited resources in designating capital funding and (c) how the city can take advantage of more grant STAVROS S. ANTHONY and partnership funding for capital projects (i.e., Regional Transportation MAYOR PRO TEM Commission, Clark County Road and Flood, Special lmprovement Districts, etc). LOIS TARKANIAN The local economy continues STEVEN D. ROSS to experience significant economic distress as a result of the recent recession, but growing levels RICKIY. BABLOW employment and sustained improvement in tourism and gaming sectors offer signs recovery. 11.6 percent BOB COFFIN of The unemployment rate for Clark County in April 2012 remained well above the national BOB BEERS average of 8.1 percent, but was considerably improved from a rate of 13.6 percent one year earlier. ELIZABETH N. FRETWELL CITY MANAGER Employment growth has been supported by a slow, but steady, recovery in tourism, with a four percent increase in visitor volume 'lrom 2011. Gaming revenues, hotel occupancy, and taxable sales have seen similar improvements, resulting in growing revenues. Consolidated tax revenues, made up primarily of sales tax, increased by three percent in fiscal 2011 and appear likely to increase by a further five percent in 2012. While tourism and gaming remain vulnerable to reductions in consumer spending, this positive trend in the region's dominant industry is encouraging. During these challenging times, the city has steadily made progress in our CIP priorities by thoughtful planning. Focus was kept on financial integrity and providing necessary projects critical to support municipal services for our citizens. This CIP contemplates reallocating approximately 922 million of reserves toward one-time projects to address needed investment and repairs of infrastructure in this CIP plan. These reserves were originally created by delaying or cancelling capital projects and reallocating those funds into the Revenue Stabilization Fund. Under the new GASB 54 accounting rules for reporting fund balances, our balances for the last three years of the recession have been hovering very close to 30 percent of operating expenses. Returning those fund balances to the capital project fund should be viewed as a healthy sign. The city's CIP represents a compilation and analysis of capital needs we anticipate over the next five years. This plan includes construction of new facilities and renovation of existing facilities, parks, and transportation infrastructure and flood control. For example: o Arterial reconstruction projects for the design and construction of arterial roadway infrastructure improvements within the city right-of-ways. lmprovement projects include improve ADA accessibility, surface drainage, CITY OF LAS VEGAS traffic capacity, traffic delineations, asphalt pavement structures and 495 S. MAIN STREET streetlights. Contemplated projects will extend roadway service life and LAS VEGAS, NEVADA 89101 improve public safety. volcg 702.229.6011 TTY 702.386.9108 www.lasvegasnevada. gov -3- o Walkable community and pedestrian and bicycle safety improvement projects to construct missing sidewalks, mid-block crossings with pedestrian signals, widen existing sidewalks, install bike lanes, install needed streetlights, and upgrades to signage and markings where appropriate. o Parks and recreation projects to improve neighborhood parks including artificial turf replacement where needed and replacing up to five football fields natural turf with artificial turf to facilitate maintenance savings, renovate several community and regional parks, recreation centers, youth facilities and athletic fields. Road and flood projects to construct infrastructure including roadways, storm/sewer collection systems, water distribution systems, landscape enhancements, curb and gutter improvements, improvements to paving, pavement re-surfacing, lane line configurations and traffic control systems as warranted. o Sustainability projects are undenruay to ensure that current and future generations will enjoy the quality of life we have all worked so hard to achieve. The CIP Plan is a guide. Numerous projects were submitted during the budget process. The Mayor and Council have prioritized these projects and only those with probable funding are reflected in the plan As such, it is subject to change and revision as various Council initiatives change. The items in the first year of the plan (2013) are those anticipated to incur spending and have, accordingly, been funded in the budget submitted to the Council at the May 15, 2012, Budget Hearing for the Fiscal Year 2013 Budget. Years two through five represent the opinions of department heads and city management in determining identifiable long-term needs of the city. ltems in the ensuing years do not have specific appropriations, although many, such as road improvements funded from the Regional Transportation Commission, have dedicated funding sources. I am proud of the work we have accomplished and feel our efforts are positioning the city to reemerge from the economic malaise more determined than ever before to increase the quality of life for the residents who live in the city.
