Equipment and facilities must be continually upgraded or replaced over time for the organization to be in the best position to provide core services to the community. Many of the City’s assets are fragmented, outdated, and inefficient. City-owned equipment, facilities, and infrastructure must be tracked within a comprehensive asset management system tracking the life cycle of assets. The system should be tied to annual budget requests and capital improvement programs to consistently provide staff and the community safe and reliable resources to become a leading community in the Midwest.
