The City established the Capital Projects Department (CPD) in Fall 2025 as part of a strategic reorganization to centralize and strengthen the coordinated planning, design, and delivery of major capital construction initiatives Citywide in collaboration with operating departments.

The City’s Community Investment Plan (CIP) represents multi-million-dollar investments in quality-of-life and resiliency infrastructure including funding from the $200 million Parks Bond, Fire Rescue Bond, Public Safety Bond, and major water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure bonds, as well as transportation surtax revenues, special obligation bonds, grants, and other dedicated funding sources.

The CPD serves as the City’s centralized hub for implementation of the voter-approved $200 million Parks Bond Program, transportation and mobility improvements, civic and public safety vertical infrastructure projects—including parks, buildings, parking facilities, fire stations, streetscapes, neighborhood improvements, transportation and mobility improvements, and other above-ground public realm investments, including public art in coordination with the Public Art and Culture Affairs Division in alignment with City Commission priorities and adopted strategic plans.
