Water and Sewer projects in FY 15-16 include starting a major modification to the TZ Osborne Water Reclamation Facility to increase plant hydraulic capacity to 56 million gallons per day to provide the capacity to absorb the flow increase from the future decommissioning of the North Buffalo plant. Other projects include ongoing water and sewer line rehabilitation, expansion and renovations, and various projects at the water and wastewater treatment plants and smaller facilities. The Field Operations Department has projects totaling $96.9 million, which equates to 7.3% of the Infrastructure Result Area and 6.4% of the total proposed CIP.

Projects that fall within the Community Services Result Area account for the second largest project total of the four Result Areas, including $113.7 million in Parks and Recreation and Libraries projects, or 7.7% of all projects over the next 10 years. Community Services projects planned for FY 15-16 include a number of projects previously approved by City Council, such as the Barber Park Phase II project and Hester Park improvements.

Infrastructure, 88.40%

The Public Safety Result Area includes $53 million in projects making up 3.6% of the total CIP. Construction of new and replacement of aging Fire Stations is the most common Public Safety project. Construction of a new station on Burlington Road (Station #65) is planned to be completed over the next year. After the construction of that station, remaining available funding for Fire Stations is currently planned to be put toward the replacement of the Franklin Boulevard Station (Station #56). Another major Public Safety project is the replacement of 800MHZ radios for Guilford Metro 911. A number of major projects have been partially or fully completed since the adoption of the previous CIP, including the Griffin Community Recreation Center, a major earthen dam project at Lake Higgins and Lake Brandt, part of the Downtown Greenway, and a variety of street and sidewalk projects. Other needs, including primarily newly identified infrastructure projects, have been identified and added to the CIP. The net result is that the total CIP for FY 16-25 remains just under $1.5 billion.
