As the city filed it
As part of the 2026 Budget process, the 2026-2035 Capital Budget and Plan included $968.7 million of previously approved unspent funding for capital projects to be carried forward to 2026-2035. This carry-forward amount was based on an initial estimate of projected spending at the time of budget development, which was prior to the 2025 year-end closing. With the 2025 fiscal year close in February 2026, City Programs and Agencies have finalized the 2025 actual project spending as well as the total carry-forward needed.

The primary purpose of this report is to seek Council's approval for an additional $237.2 million in carry-forward funding from 2025 to 2026-2035 period. With the incremental carry-forward request, the total capital carry-forward funding from 2025 to the 2026-2035 Capital Budget and Plan will be $1.206 billion, and the total adjusted 2026 Tax and Rate Supported Capital Budget including previously approved carry-forward amount will be $5.889 billion. The revised total carry-forward funding is equivalent to 20.5% of the total 2026 Tax and Rate Supported Capital Budget. This report also brings forward in-year capital budget adjustment requests for previously approved budget and future year commitments, taking into account the recommended incremental carry-forward. Approval of these requests is needed to provide the necessary spending authority to continue with capital project delivery.
