This dataset summarizes the city’s cash outlays and accruals for the cost of goods received or services rendered, by department, department unit/division, and expenditure type, for three years; the current fiscal year and two previous fiscal years. The city's fiscal year runs July 1 to June 30. The city’s financial system, where transactions are recorded daily, is the source for this data. The data also contains current budget information. Current budget reflects budget transfers and amendments during the fiscal year that have transpired since City Council adopted the budget prior to the beginning of the current fiscal year. The data is refreshed daily on weekdays, and the expenditure amounts are current as of the date it was last refreshed.

*Disclaimer: Expenditures will reflect the previous fiscal year’s activity until final entries have been made and the accounting period has been closed.

This data is updated daily on weekdays.

The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a multi-year plan for capital expenditures to replace, maintain, and expand the city’s infrastructure. The city uses the CIP to develop infrastructure and maintain the quality of life offered to residents and businesses. The capital budget supports non-recurring expenditures, such as the construction of buildings, acquisition of property, repairs, and improvements to roadways, building maintenance, and the efficient operation of the water, sewage, and storm water systems. Capital funding is limited to the cost of the project and may be expended over several fiscal years until the project is completed.

This dataset shows the projects that were approved to be included in the FY2024 adopted CIP. Each capital project included in the CIP is either approved for funding in FY2024 or included as a planned project in FY2025 through FY2028. The inclusion of a project beyond the current budget does not guarantee it will be funded in the future. This dataset will not be updated, however, a new dataset will be created each fiscal year for the new CIP.

Performance measures are data metrics defined and tracked by city departments to measure the city government’s effectiveness and efficiency of service delivery. Data for the performance measures are derived from the biennial Resident Survey as well as department data tracking systems. Each performance measure is connected to one of the strategic goals and objectives that the City has defined as a high priority. The performance measures will be reviewed and refined annually to ensure they are representative of the priorities set out by City Council and the community.
