From 2014 to 2018, capital expenses total $120.98
million. Over 10 years, the City of Moose Jaw has $236.28 million in
infrastructure deficit.
The 2014-2018 capital budget and the 10-year
unfunded capital budget were presented to council at Monday’s meeting.
The estimates were unanimously referred to budget committee for detailed
review.
“The capital budget provides for the provision of
funds to allow the City of Moose Jaw to undertake major construction,
renovation or rehabilitation projects,” said Brian Acker, director of
financial services. “Projects that enter into the capital plan are first
evaluated and refined by city administration.”
Coun. Brian Swanson said he took issue with the
amount of funding allocated for cast iron water main replacement and
would advocate for additional funding in budget deliberations.
