Capital Improvement Advisory Committee
Greg Van Nieuwenhuize, Assistant Director of Public Works, gave the report in a
detailed power point presentation. He explained the purpose of the committee is
to review the progress of the Capital Improvement Plan program and updated the
committee on the fund balances and current projects.
Chairman Shiflet asked if there was anything projected on the Smithfield rail
station site to be added to the program at the appropriate time?
Mr. Van Nieuwenhuize replied that, because of the current economic climate,
should the city be doing something different? The short answer is no, based on
the fact that the program gets updated every five years by state law. It was last
updated April 2005 so in the next fiscal year we will be looking at hiring a firm to
go update the rates.
Mr. Pitstick added that many cities use the Planning and Zoning as the Capital
Improvements Advisory Committee because they oversee the land use
consumptions.
Chairman Shiftlet stated he did not see anything on the power point for water
consumption in the Smithfield area.
Mr. Van Nieuwenhuize stated that due to the increased density that will
potentially occur in the area it will need to be addressed in the new plan.
Mr. Van Nieuwenhuize explained that the city hires a consultant to assist with
financial data collecting and analysis, Keith Reed with Reed Municipal Services,
who was also present at this meeting. Mr. Reed suggested that the Committee
be mindful of the time it takes to approve the budget for the future impact
program, due to the length of time it takes for the hearing process.
APPROVED
Bill Schopper motioned to accept the Capital Improvement Plan as
presented recommend approval from the City Council. Kelly Gent
seconded the motion and it was carried unanimously (6-0).
