(Dublin, OH) – Dublin City Council adopted the 2019-2023 Five-Year Capital Improvements Program at their meeting Monday, October 22.
Funding priorities include maintaining existing assets and infrastructure, and completing construction of Riverside Crossing Park within a three-year time frame.
“The 2019-2023 Capital Improvements Program reflects City Council and the Administration’s continued investment in the City in a fiscally responsible manner. The $194.3 million program, largely funded through 25% of the City’s income tax revenue dedicated to capital improvements, includes $77.3 million in funding for maintenance of existing assets and infrastructure. The remaining amount will be spent on enhancements and new infrastructure that will benefit residents now and in the future,” said Angel Mumma, Director of Finance.
Notable projects slated for funding in the CIP include:
- Riverside Crossing Park – $17,725,000 for construction of east park upper plaza and lower plazas, and west plaza site improvements (2019), west plaza site improvements, east park open space and events lawn, and retaining walls and stairs along Riverside Drive (2020), west park path improvements, site stabilization and restoration (2021)
- Dublin Community Pool North – $7,150,000 for design (2019) and construction (2020)
- Shier Rings Road – $11.2 million for design (2019), site acquisition and utility relocation (2020), and construction (2021) to upgrade the existing two-lane road to a four- to five-lane divided road with median, curb and gutter
