Capital improvement plans are important mechanisms that ensure jurisdictions have the capacity to adequately finance, provide, and maintain infrastructure, public facilities, and general services. The County draws from a number of sources to fund infrastructure. The County pays for most capital projects through its own funding sources. The largest County funding sources are:
Other funding sources include:
The Santa Fe County Planning Division works across departments to develop long-, medium-, and short-range infrastructure plans.
The County annually prepares a 5-Year Infrastructure Capital Improvement Plan (ICIP). The ICIP is submitted to the New Mexico Legislature every year where projects are considered for Capital Outlay funding. Through a series of public meetings, County staff solicit project proposals from residents for inclusion in the ICIP and other capital planning documents.
The 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (5-Year CIP) lists necessary capital projects over a 5-year period. The 5-Year CIP is updated annually as part of the yearly budgeting process. County departments submit a list of capital needs in February for inclusion in the 5-Year CIP and budget. A committee made up of County staff and leadership reviews the project lists and finalizes the 5-Year CIP. The 5-Year CIP is used to guide capital budgeting decisions, drawing from all capital funding sources available to the County.
Santa Fe County staff are developing a 20-Year Capital Improvement Plan (20-Year CIP) to coordinate capital investments over a 20-year period. The 20-Year CIP expands upon the existing 5-Year CIP and documents projects proposed by Santa Fe County staff, residents, and elected officials. The 20-Year CIP also lists capital expenditures required to meet the County’s level of service standards: investments necessary to maintain quality public services into the future. This document will contain methodology for identifying and prioritizing projects and for comparing project needs against the available budget.
