This list of proposed projects is contained in a Capital Improvements Program (CIP). The role of the Planning Commission in reviewing a CIP is to ensure the conformity of each project with the goals, objectives, and policies of the General Plan. The merits and funding for individual projects listed in the CIP will then be reviewed and approved by the City Council. The Department of Administrative Services has submitted a coordinated list of all capital projects recommended by City Departments for the Fiscal Year 1999/2000. The 1999/2000 CIP categorizes individual projects by Department and subject. Within each category, individual projects are prioritized and summarized. Each summary includes a brief description and anticipated cost. To provide detailed information as to the conformity of each project with the General Plan, Resolution No. 1547 presents relevant General Plan policies for each proposed project in the 1999/2000 CIP. In the Resolution, the General Plan policies are grouped with the individual projects by Department and subject.
