CAPITAL PLAN

Capital Improvement Program ...............................................................................50

Governmental funds focus on inflows and outflows of current financial resources. Most inflows are reported as revenues. The revenues

recorded by the City of Riverton General Fund amount to approximately $11,990M, an increase of $4,256M from prior year. This large

increase is mainly attributed to revenues received from grants and intergovernmental agreements to fund the North Federal Boulevard

Reconstruction Project.

The valuation of property in the City is determined by the Fremont County Assessor. The property tax is influenced by two factors:

increases in assessed valuation and new construction. The City anticipates a 2% increase this year for an approximate projection of

$388,000 for this fiscal year. Discussions with the County Assessor have indicated that there will be a decrease in total assessed value.

However, most of the significant decreases in property taxes in Fremont County will happen outside our corporate limits as the city is

not directly impacted from the oil and gas industry like the County would be. The County Assessor projected a 4% increase in

residential and commercial personal property. This is the primary area of revenue impacting the City. Therefore, a 2% increase in

revenue projections is a reasonable assumption.

Sales and use taxes are the largest sources of revenue for the General Fund. These amounts make up about 31% of the operating

revenue received or approximately $2,000,000 for FY18. This is an increase of 11% from prior year. There is roughly a 70/30 split

between state and local government of sales and use tax revenue generated on a sales transaction in Fremont County, and of that 30

percent the City receives 28%. Other taxes critical to the general fund in order to provide essential services to our residents are

gasoline, special fuel, cigarette, mineral royalty, and severance for a total of $1,580,593, an increase of 1% from prior year.

Supplemental funding adjusted by the state and used for capital projects or one-time only expenses, total $1,182,000 which is the same

as the prior year projection. Staff’s recommendation for items committed to supplemental funding this year is General Fund Capital

projects in the amount of $947,700; the major portion of the capital project requirements is due to the upcoming North Federal Project.

The City’s portion of the project is split between several funds, and the General Fund obligation is $738,118. The remaining

supplemental funding will support Contracts for Services in the amount of $342,250 and Airport Capital in the amount of $47,132. The

balance requirement of $155,082 to complete capital project requests will come from cash reserves.

The City imposes fees (franchise fees) on gas, electric, and cable television companies for the privilege of using City streets and

pipelines. The amount projected this year is approximately $910,000, (1% greater than last fiscal year) from entities such as Qwest,

Rocky Mountain Power, Charter, High Plains Power and Black Hills Energy.

Licenses and Permits collected amount to $145,200 for FY18 which is a decrease of approximately $51,050 from prior year. This due to

a decline in building and encroachment fees generated from new construction. Licenses and Permit Fees include liquor licenses,

contractor registrations, permits for construction of residential and commercial/industrial structures, encroachments,

professional/occupational permits, etc. We are not anticipating significant new construction as we have in prior years and have

adjusted the revenues accordingly.

The balance of the revenue collected consists of grants (federal, state, county, local), property assessments, and intergovernmental

agreements.

The airport subsidy, which is general fund reserves, will require $300,856 this upcoming fiscal year which is a decrease of $227,825

from prior year.

General Fund Revenues

In governmental accounting, a fund that provides goods or services to the public for a fee that makes the entity self-supporting is

known as an enterprise fund.

The Water Fund as an Enterprise Fund is used to report any activity for which a fee is charged to external users for goods and services.

This specific fund is established to track user fees to comply with the following criteria based upon GASB 34 (Governmental Accounting

Standards Board):

1) Debts due to capital projects

2) Legal requirements to recover cost of providing services (including capital costs and debt service)

3) Policy decision designed to recover costs through rate increases and additional services provided.

The revenue for the Water Fund for FY17-18 consists mainly of $2.637M dollars for user fees, irrigation fees, tap fees, standpipe fees,

etc. The City currently bills and average of 4,321 customers per month for water fees. The balance of the projected revenue includes

grants and/or loans ($696,900) to help fund capital projects like the Riverton Water Supply Project and North Federal Reconstruction

Project. This year transfers from reserves for capital projects are anticipated at $220,750. The funds are on hand and have been

assigned specifically for the North Federal Project. Operationally, revenues are projected to exceed expenses by $67,085. This balance

is budgeted as a transfer to reserves.

In April 2017, the City Council passed a resolution for a 6% increase to water user rates. This is the first rate raise approved since 2014.

However, there has been a significant decline in revenues generated from plant investment, new construction fees, and revenue from

grants and intergovernmental agreements. Overall, the Water Fund will see decrease of 16% from prior year projections.

The Sewer Fund as an Enterprise Fund is used to report any activity for which a fee is charged to external users for goods and services.

This specific fund is established to track user fees to comply with the following criteria based upon GASB 34 (Governmental Accounting

Standards Board):




The revenue for the Wastewater Fund for FY17-18 consists mainly of $1.95M dollars for user fees, septic dump fees, tap fees, bio-solid

sales, etc. The City currently bills 4,565 customers per month for sewer fees. The balance of the projected revenue includes grants

and/or loans ($662,250) to help fund the North Federal Reconstruction Project. This year, transfers from cash reserves for capital

projects are anticipated at $220,750. The funds are on hand and have been assigned specifically for this project. Operationally,

revenues are projected to exceed expenses by $20,359. This balance is budgeted to be transferred to cash reserves.

In April 2017, the City Council passed a resolution for a 3% increase to wastewater user rates. This is the first rate raise approved since

2014. With the rate increase and added revenues from grants and intergovernmental agreements, the Wastewater Fund will see an

overall increase of 5% over prior year projections.

The Sanitation Fund as an Enterprise Fund is used to report any activity for which a fee is charged to external users for goods and

services. This specific fund is established to track user fees to comply with the following criteria based upon GASB 34 (Governmental

Accounting Standards Board):




The revenue for the Sanitation Fund for FY17-18 consists of $2.514M dollars from user fees, solids handling fees, mulch sales, extra

rollouts, etc. The City currently bills 4,269 customers per month for sanitation fees. The balance of projected revenue involves revenue

of $37,500 from a State Grant for Landfill Mediation.

In April 2017, the City Council passed a resolution of a 3% increase to sanitation user rates. This is the first rate raise approved since

2014. With the rate increase and added revenue from the grant, the Sanitation Fund will see an overall increase of 5% over prior year

projections.

The Airport Fund is used to report any activity for which a fee is charged to external users for goods and services. This specific fund is

established to track user fees to comply with the following criteria based upon GASB 34 (Governmental Accounting Standards Board):


2) Legal requirements to recover cost of providing services (including capital costs, depreciation and debt service)


The Airport Fund revenue generated from lease agreements total $175,500. This represents a 14% increase from FY16-17. The fund

also, collects special aviation fuel taxes in the amount of $6,500 and cargo landing fees in the amount of $5,500. Riverton Regional

Airport has requested $50,000 from Fremont County to support operations and capital projects at the airport, but the request is still

awaiting approval. Funding provided by the county in the most recent 3 years has steadily declined. The balance of the projected

revenue originates from grants used to help pay for capital investments, such as the A.R.F. Building Expansion and Equipment (fire truck

and mower), General Aviation Apron Design, Taxiway D Signage and the purchase of snow removal equipment. An annual subsidy from

General Fund reserves also supports the balance of revenue required for operations only. FY17-18 projects a subsidy of $300,856

which is a decrease of $195,666 from prior year.

Mayor & City Council Highlights: This budget reflects a 13% decrease due to the removal of beautification projects and a 75%

decrease in Council Contingency (per Mayor Baker).

Function: The City of Riverton contracts with nine (9) community services agencies: Youth Services, Volunteer Firemen, Volunteers of

America, Good Samaritan Center, PAWS, Childrens Advocacy Project, Chamber of Commerce, Injury Prevention Resources, CWC/”R”

Recreation. The City has contracts with each of these agencies that indicates the services the organization will provide due to city

funding.

Community Services Highlights: This fiscal year $342,250 was allocated to nine (9) agency line items within the City budget. This

reflects an increase of $6,270 from the previous year. In the previous year, all Community Service agencies supported by the City

received a ten percent (10%) decrease in funding. Due to the significant decrease in funding to the Good Samaritan Center in FY 16-17,

the City agreed to waive all city utilities (water, sewer, and sanitation) to the center. The utility waiver for this agency will be granted

again in FY17-18. All of the funding for contract service requests is taken out of supplemental funding from the State of Wyoming. The

City historically has funded third party requests from supplemental funds and the remaining balance is used in capital projects in the

general fund.

Community Services

9

Function: The City Administrator’s role is to provide leadership, support, coordination and oversight to all day-to-day operations of city

government; and to initiate and implement the goals and policies set forth by the governing body of the City of Riverton.

City Adminstrator Highlights: This cost center is supported in total by General Fund revenues. The proposed expenditures indicate an

overall decrease of 22% due to the current recruitment of a permanent City Administrator. The interim position is significantly less and

does not earn benefits, which is a significant savings to the city (i.e. health insurance, retirement, etc.). The only increase to a line item is

the replacement of the current work station pursuant to Information Technology’s six year replacement program.

City Administrator

10

Function: The Administrative Services Department is a dedicated team of professionals who provide personalized service and proactive

solutions with fairness and consistency to all.

Municipal Court Highlights: The Municipal Court’s expenditure budget saw a 6% increase from prior year budget. The City

experienced a vacancy in the prior fiscal year. This was an anticipated retirement of a long term employee. Due to cost containment

measures, a replacement was not immediately hired. This position has since been filled and the overall budget impact has been

minimal.

Administrative Services Highlights: This department is funded solely by general fund operations (i.e. taxes, permits, etc.). The FY18

budget indicates an overall decrease of 26% due to positions not being replaced in the prior year and a restructure of the department.

Cross-training opportunities will continue to be provided in the event another potential restructure happens in the near future. An

overall 15% rate discount was received from the Wyoming Local Government Liability Pool and is reflected in the insurance line item as

a decrease. This expense is also shared with the enterprise funds (water, wastewater, & sanitation).

Function: The Information Technology Department continually strives to provide the most appropriate level of service to all our

customers in a dedicated and professional manner, seeking to balance the demands of technological advancement and cost

effectiveness in all aspects of our operations.

Information Technology Highlights: The IT division will see several changes to line items this year. The Computer line item will

experience several renewals this fiscal year due to security maintenance, licensing and essential equipment support. By subscribing to a

three-year cycle for its SPAM system for example (which blocks approximately 50K e-mail per month), the city will see a higher cost this

fiscal year due to its renewal, but an overall budget savings. There is also a large increase to Vehicle & Equipment Maintenance. This is

due to regular scheduled maintenance of a bucket truck. The maintenance of this equipment is budgeted as a three-way split between

IT, Streets & Alleys and Parks and ensures the truck is properly serviced and the boom is recertified. Finally, there is an increase to the

Safety line item. This increase is necessary to purchase safety equipment unique to the Air Fiber Ring capital project.

Function: The mission of the Facility Maintenance Division is to provide an effective, efficient and proactive building maintenance

program for a clean, healthy and safe working and social environment for the community, employees and tenants.

Facility Maintenance Highlights: The Facility Maintenance Division recognized a decrease in last fiscal year due to not replacing a

custodial position. Fiscal year 2018 indicates a slight increase due to filling that position. Line items for Janitorial Supplies and Building

Maintenance increased due to Facility Maintenance absorbing costs of all facilities i.e. City Hall, Public Works and the Airport. Line items

were decreased for Office Supplies and Tools & Supplies and also for Electricity due to Rocky Mountain Power announcement of lower

rates.

Function: To provide effective and efficient police service to the members of our community while maintaining high standards of

professionalism, honesty, and integrity.

Law Enforcement Highlights: The Police Department is showing a budget increase in the coming year of 10%. The majority of this

increase comes from turnover which occurred in FY 2016-2017, and positions were replaced with officers attending the Wyoming Law

Enforcement Academy. Additionally, specific increases include: an increase to Firearms Supplies and Travel and Training expenses due

to a change in training expenses at the Wyoming Law Enforcement Academy; an increase in the Computer line item to allow for the

maintenance and system upgrades on mobile data terminals; an increase in Investigation Supplies due to the creation of a CST (Crime

Scene Team); and an increase in Housing Prisoners due to the fee owed to the Fremont County Sheriff’s Department for housing

prisoners arrested by the police department and charged with a city ordinance or city warrant.

Fire Division: An agreement was signed between the City of Riverton and the Riverton Volunteer Fire Department in April, 1972. The

terms of the agreement states that the City agrees to pay $2.50 towards each active member’s retirement contribution not to exceed

47 members. Presently, the city pays an annual amount of $2000 - $3000 for the fire department pension contribution and the

individual amount has been changed through the years to reflect $7.50 for each member as of this current fiscal year. We pay on a

quarterly basis and reimburse the Riverton Volunteer Fire Department based on a report that indicates the number of active members.

As a side note, we also consider the Riverton Volunteer Fire Department as a Contract for Service and contribute $10,000 to them

annually from supplemental funding.

Function: The mission of the Public Works Department is to provide leadership and support to each of the public works related

divisions working for the City of Riverton. It further strives to instill public confidence through exceptional customer service in a

transparent, professional manner.

Public Works Highlights: The Public Works Department cost center exhibits a 6% increase in FY18. The most significant increase is

reflected in the health insurance line item. A new computer for the Public Works Secretary is also reflected in the increase. This

computer is budgeted in both general and enterprise fund cost centers. Decreases are exhibited in Office Supplies, Janitor Supplies, and

Postage line items.

Function: The mission of the Streets & Alleys Division is to maintain and improve the transportation network that supports our

Streets & Alleys Highlights: The Streets and Alleys Division exhibits a 3% budget decrease in FY18. Significant decreases are reflected

in the Overtime, Health Insurance, Vehicle & Equipment Maintenance, Tools & Supplies, Electricity, and Building Maintenance line

items. Outside of the Health Insurance line item, these decreases were made to reflect expenditure patterns from previous fiscal years.

The Health Insurance line item was adjusted due to a change in how the Operations Division Manager and Streets & Alleys Supervisor

are compensated. These positions are budgeted between multiple General Fund and Enterprise Fund cost centers and the FY18 budget

reflects a change in how the positions are allocated. The division exhibits an increase to Painting & Supplies and the creation of a

Computer Supplies line item. The addition of this line item will enable network upgrades to the Public Works administrative offices.

Function: The mission of the Fleet Maintenance Division is to perform preventative maintenance and light to moderate repair services

on the working equipment of the City of Riverton.

Fleet Maintenance Highlights: The Fleet Maintenance Division exhibits a 21% increase in FY18. This is largely due to the addition of

the Fleet/Sanitation Supervisor position. The division was previously supervised by the Assets Division Manager, who retired in FY 16.

The Assets Division Manager position was not replaced in FY17 and was ultimately eliminated. The Building Maintenance line item was

increased to accommodate necessary repairs to the heating system in the fleet building. These repairs will be split between multiple

cost centers (Fleet Maintenance, Water Distribution, Wastewater Collection, and Sanitation Operations).

Function: The mission of the Weed & Pest Division is to provide physical and technical support for the management of weeds and pests

to protect the City of Riverton as a pristine place to work and reside.

Weed & Pest Highlights: The Weed & Pest Division exhibits a 30% increase in FY18. This increase is solely attributed to personnel

related expenditures. Specifically, the budget reflects a change in how the Streets & Alleys Supervisor is compensated between the

Streets & Alleys and Weed & Pest cost centers. Expenditures for Laboratory Supplies, Gas & Oil, Diesel, and Travel &Training were

decreased to match spending patterns from FY17. 75% of this budget is reimbursed by Fremont County Weed & Pest.

social use by the residents of the city.

Parks Division Highlights: The Parks Division exhibits a 13% increase in FY18. Significant increases are reflected in the

Unemployment, Computer Supplies, and City Park Water Feature line items. The Computer Supplies line item increase relates to IT

upgrades and the City Park Water Feature is associated with the construction of a splash pad feature. Expenses for this feature will be

offset with community generated funds and grants. The Contract Services, Electricity, and Recruitment line items were decreased to

reflect expenditure patterns from previous fiscal years. Expenditures related to the State Forestry Grant were not included in the FY18

budget since the Riverton Tree Board has not yet applied for said grant.

Community Development Highlights: The FY18 budget indicates an overall decrease of 7% due to personnel changes and a

reduction in line items for Gas & Oil, Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance, Tools & Supplies and Advertising. The line item for 3rd party

Plan Reviews was also reduced and this line item is offset by revenue from the permit applicant. The line item for Books will be partially

offset by contractors purchasing code books for the new ICC Building Codes that were adopted this year.

Container Maintenance, Monitor Wells, and Landfill Charges line items were decreased. These decreases were made to reflect

expenditure patterns from previous years. The Landfill Charges line item was increased in FY17 in anticipation of Fremont County Solid

Waste Disposal District dramatically changing their recycling program. These changes did not occur and the Landfill Charges line item

was appropriately reduced. That being said, additional funds were budgeted into the line item to accommodate the excess solid waste

generated by the eclipse event. The Building Maintenance line item was increased from historical trends to accommodate repairs to

the heating system in the fleet building. These repairs will be split between multiple cost centers (Fleet Maintenance, Water

Airport Operation Highlights: The Airport Fund exhibits a 17% decrease in FY18. This is largely due to the elimination of the

Administrative Allocation line item. That being said, reductions were also seen in the Office Supplies, Computer Supplies, Janitor

Supplies, Uniforms, Gas & Oil, Vehicle & Equipment Maintenance, Postage, Promotion & Development, Dues, Telephone, and Audit line

items. The Safety Supplies line item was increased to accommodate the purchase of traffic control barricades. Runway Maintenance

was increased for the purchase of weather monitoring equipment as required by the Federal Aviation Administration. The Insurance

line item was substantially increased in FY18. This is the result of a vehicle accident that occurred in the winter of 2017. The Fuel Farm

The FY18 proposed budget encompasses another year of funding to the Depot Foundation which purchased 150 acres of land from

Mr. Bob Foster for the Riverwalk property in June 2009. The Depot Foundation received a loan from First Interstate Bank to purchase

the property for $198,296. In addition, the Depot provided the City with $50,000 to help with the Riverwalk project as the bids came

in significantly higher than anticipated to complete the project. The City entered into an agreement with the Depot Foundation to

repay the funds. The annual amount of $24,000 from the City is to be used for debt repayment, other improvements, and cost of

holding the property. The current amount owed to the Foundation is approximately $160,000. The City will pay the Depot Foundation

$2,000 a month until the loan is paid in full, then the City will receive a deed to the property.

Expenitures are listed in the capital plan section.

1% Revenues: Governmental funds focus on inflows and outflows of current financial resources. Most inflows are reported as

revenues. November 2016, Fremont County passed the general purpose One Percent sales and use taxes for 4 years beginning in

2013. It was again approved in November 2016.

The purpose of the optional tax is to maintain and improve infrastructure related to streets, roads, bridges, water and sewer utilities,

for the benefit of all who work, play, or visit Fremont County and the City of Riverton. Unlike the other sales and use taxes which are

collected, the City sees 99% of the funds collected within our limits.

The revenues projected for FY17-18 by the City of Riverton’s One Percent Fund is approximately $1.922M dollars and include the

following: sales tax ($1.485M), use tax ($205,000) and a TAP grant in the amount of $118,000.

Expenditures are listed in the capital plan section.

Function: In November of 2012, Fremont County residents approved the application of an Optional 1% Tax. It was again approved in

November of 2016. This optional tax is a 1% tax on the sale of goods and services in Fremont County. The purpose of the optional tax

is to maintain and improve infrastructure related to streets, roads, bridges, water and sewer utilities, for the benefit of all who work,

play, or visit Fremont County and the City of Riverton.

After the Optional 1% Tax was approved through ballot initiative, the City of Riverton formed the Fix Our Roads Citizen Committee

(FORCC). The mission of FORCC is to provide recommendations to the City Council on how to best utilize revenues generated by the

optional tax. FORCC is made up of nine citizens interested in improving the infrastructure of the City of Riverton and ensuring public

confidence in the use of 1% funds. They are a committee of volunteers who meet on a monthly basis to review the capital needs of the

City of Riverton.

Revenues generated by the Optional 1% Tax have gone towards neighborhood concrete improvement projects, Americans with

Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility projects, chip seal projects, and asphalt overlay projects.

911 Fund: This fund is a Special Revenue Fund which is used to account for the proceeds from a specific revenue source. In accordance

with state statutes, the City of Riverton may, by ordinance, impose a monthly uniform tax on service users within its designated 911

service area in an amount not to exceed seventy-five cents ($.75) per month on each local exchange access line, per wireless

communications access or other technological device that under normal operation is designed or routinely used to access 911.

The city is projecting anticipated revenues of $24,000 in 911 tax surcharge fees for FY17-18. The County receives the revenue for any

call made with a cell phone; therefore, our assumption is this fund will continue to decrease with the use of cell phones in our

jurisdiction.

· Booster Station Rehabilitation – The doors at the Main Street Booster Station are damaged and difficult to secure. As the booster

station is a critical piece of City infrastructure, it is necessary to secure the facility with new doors. Also, the existing Pressure Sustaining

Valve (PSV) is dated and the rubber bladder has failed several times. While the WTP staff is proficient in repairing the bladder, this

project will allow them to replace the PSV allowing the staff to utilize their time more efficiently. $43,000 has been budgeted to cover

· Tasers & Radios – The Police Department currently owns 35 radios and tasers. Half of them were purchased in 2006. In 2008, the

other half was refurbished to try to keep them in working order. The equipment is now at a point where they are obsolete and parts

and maintenance are no longer available. Because the cost to replace the entire inventory is so large, the City will budget to replace the

equipment at six per year. $44,082 has been budgeted for this years costs.· South Federal Project – WYDOT continues to close out the reconstruction of South Federal Boulevard from Monroe to

Washington. After discussions with WYDOT, $10,000 has been budgeted to cover project closeout and administrative costs.

· Fleet Capital Patrol Vehicles – There are currently 12 patrol vehicles in the Police Department. Many of them are in need of

replacement. Historically, the Police Department replaced vehicles at two per year. However in recent years, vehicle purchases have

been eliminated from the budget. During the month of May 2017, six patrol vehicles were out of service at the same time for repairs.

This required officers to double up in vehicles, thus diminishing the level of police coverage in the community. The restoration of the

vehicle replacement program will provide much needed equipment and help to reduce the expenses for vehicle and equipment

maintenance. The current budget is $104,000 for the replacement of two fully outfitted vehicles.

· The Optional 1% Tax related to infrastructure improvements was renewed for another 4 years. At this time, the City has approved

several projects including North Federal Boulevard, the ADA Ramps and Flashing Crosswalk project, the Gannett Drive/Davis Lane

Engineering Design, and the North Second West Reconstruction Project. Other projects will be approved on a case by case basis as

recommended by the Fix Our Roads Citizen Committee (FORCC).

· Meter Maintenance – The City's water meter supplier has informed us that, at the end of 2017, they will no longer support the

meter readers or meter transmitting units (MXUs) the City currently uses. Because of the No Lead Law, the City is already changing out

the old meters. Unfortunately, this will force the City to get a new meter reader and MXUs as they are not cross-compatible. Until all

MXUs have been replaced, the City will have to operate two different reading systems. $20,000 has been budgeted to purchase a new

mobile reader, hand held unit and 25 meters and MXUs.· SCADA Upgrades – Currently, the Water Treatment Plant has two chemicals which are feed manually during the treatment

process. This project will add computer controls so these processes can be incorporated into the current control system. $12,000 has

been budgeted for this project.

· North Federal Project – WYDOT will let the North Federal Boulevard Reconstruction Project in July of 2017. The City has

received a grant and loan from the State of Wyoming for help with the drinking water portion of this project.

· Riverton Water Supply – This project represents ongoing improvements to the City’s water utility. It consists of three construction

phases. The City has received all of the easements for the third phase which is a transmission line from the JCC Tank on Airport Road to

Riverview Road. $45,000 has been budgeted to finalize the plans and potentially begin bidding. There is currently a Wyoming Water

Development Commission grant/loan for this project which expires in June of 2020.

Capital assets include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g. roads, sidewalks, water distribution lines, wastewater

collection lines, and other similar items). Capital assets are defined by the government as assets with an initial, individual cost of more

than $5,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of two years. Such assets are recorded at historical cost if purchased or constructed.

Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation. The costs of normal maintenance and

repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized.

· North Federal Project – WYDOT will let the North Federal Boulevard Reconstruction Project in July of 2017. The City has received a

grant and loan from the State for help with the storm water portion of this project. The City also received a grant from WYDOT for the

part of the lighting. As the City is unsure of how the contractor will schedule the construction, the City has budgeted $4,634,908 for the

project. This is 75% of the estimated construction costs.· Network Bandwidth Upgrade –Several remote sites are currently served by a T1 circuit which has slow network speeds. This

project would take advantage of the recent radio project and increase the bandwidth available at these remote sites. By not using third-

party T1 circuits and DSL lines, the City can save potentially thousands of dollars over the life of the product. $20,000 has been

budgeted for this project.· Urban Systems Study – This project is a corridor study of the connectivity of Cooper Road/Webbwood Road and is a joint Urban

Systems Project with costs shared between WYDOT, Fremont County, and the City. $6,500 has been budgeted to cover the City’s

portion of the planning project.· Holding Cell Camera System – This system would replace the 20-year old black and white cameras in the Police Department

holding cells. The current system is a basic black and white camera system with no sound. The cameras would include color and sound

as well as provide the framework to which additional cameras/channels could be added under the same scheme without replicating the

cost of the entire system when growth is required.

acquisition is supported by both state and federal grants that cover 97.5% of project costs.

· AIP 44 Taxiway D Signage – This project will replace airport signs that have reached the end of their useful life and have become a

safety and maintenance issue at the airport. $244,445 has been budgeted to replace and improve lighting and signage infrastructure.

Both state and federal grants are available to cover 96% of project costs.· ARIW 34A Acquire Snow Removal Equipment – Pursuant to federal regulation, Riverton Regional needs to update its existing snow

removal equipment. $260,000 has been budgeted for this piece of equipment. A grant from the State of Wyoming covers 90% of the

project cost.
