Capital Improvement Plan
The City of Georgetown annually updates and adopts a five-year Capital Improvements Plan (CIP)
Schedule as part of the operating budget adoption process. Needed capital improvements are identified
through system models, repair and maintenance records, and growth. The City uses a team approach to
prioritizing capital improvement projects, whereby City staff from all operational areas provide input and
ideas relating to each project and its effect on operations, such as:
Fire and Police Services staff provides insight into a project’s impact on emergency traffic
responses, public lighting issues and other public safety concerns.
Planning & Development staff gives direction regarding new development and the infrastructure
needs relating to this growth.
Other utility departments, such as the Transportation, Energy and Water Services
Departments exchange information regarding each project and coordinated timing of many of the
related projects in an effort to create less inconvenience for the citizens affected.
The timeline for the CIP planning process is outlined below:
By using this team approach, the City develops cooperation among the departments, identifies potential
problem areas, and prioritizes financing issues.
The Capital Improvements Projects (CIP) generally
consists of infrastructure and related construction and
do not include small capital items such as furniture,
equipment and vehicles. Significant maintenance
projects, such as line repairs are not included in the
capital project schedules. These maintenance type
projects are not capitalized as a fixed asset and are
always cash funded; therefore, they are considered
operational in nature and are included in the
departmental operating budget. The CIP schedules
consolidate the capital spending priorities for all
operating activities of the City, including all
governmental and enterprise activities that provide
services to the citizens of Georgetown.
The CIP Schedules are included as part of the annual
operating budget. The first year of the list becomes the
capital budget for the approved budget year. The
following pages outline the CIP Schedule for each
activity and include anticipated projects, current year project location and sources of funding.

Water Services
Introduction
Georgetown Utility Systems Water Services Utility maintains a Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) to address the community’s need for superior water, wastewater, and
irrigation service. This CIP is determined by many factors including on-going
annexation, service improvement, the
rehabilitation of aging water and wastewater
infrastructure, and the need to meet changing
state and federal requirements.
The City operates three water treatment
plants and five wastewater treatment plants.
This table lists each plant with its current
capacity. Water Services retains ownership of
these plants and contracts for their operation.
The City’s current utilization of its water
supply is 35% ground water and 65% surface
water.
Growth
Population growth within the Water Utility service area continues to drive the need for
capital improvement. The City of Georgetown’s water and wastewater demand is
projected to grow by
approximately 15% over the
next five years. The five year
plan includes plans to expand
the capacity of the water
treatment system to meet peak
demand.
Wastewater flows are also
anticipated to grow by
approximately 18% over the
next five years. City staff
continues to look for ways to
improve services within the
current infrastructure, and thus
delay plant expansions if at all
possible.

Age
One of the greatest issues facing Water Services is the replacement of older water and
wastewater system mains. The City of Georgetown has been providing water and
wastewater service for over one hundred years. Some of the early infrastructure has
exceeded its useful life and requires extensive repair or replacement to continue the
delivery of reliable service to the community.
The Wastewater
improvements being
recommended continue the
rehabilitation of sanitary
sewer mains that may be
experiencing inflow and
infiltration throughout the
City. An aggressive
sanitary sewer main
improvement program
eliminates the potential for
Sanitary Sewer Overflows
(SSO) and allows for the
delivery of reliable
wastewater service to the
community.
Regulatory Changes
The City of Georgetown is subject to requirements of the Edwards Aquifer Recharge
Zone (EARZ) rules because 98% of the City is over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge
Zone. The regulatory requirements of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality
(TCEQ) require testing of at least 20% of the collection system every year, thus testing
the entire system every 5 years. The testing is included in the Wastewater CIP
program. Once problems are identified, the City has twelve (12) months to make
repairs. A significant portion of the capital budget for the Wastewater Utility is dedicated
for inspection and repair of existing mains.

Energy Services
Introduction
The Energy Services Utility maintains a Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to address the
community’s need for superior electric service.
The CIP is developed by incorporating several
factors including service improvement, increased
reliability, equipment aging, and extension of
service within the certificated service area,
regulatory changes, competition within dually
certified areas, and support for economic
development. The City operates and maintains
an energy delivery system including seven
substations and 394 miles of distribution lines
consisting of both 12.5kV and 25kV. In addition
to energy delivery, the Energy Services Utility
operates the SCADA system, fiber-optic
communications network, and the AMR system.
These additional systems support collectively the
electric and water utilities.
Growth
Over the past ten years, the City of Georgetown Electric distribution system has experienced
rapid growth, with the addition of
several new residential and
commercial developments in the
system’s service area. The
system anticipates a continued
growth of 15% in the service area
over the next five years. The
Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
includes projects over the next
five years to add power bank
additions at substations along with
other substation support and
modifications to address growth
and reliability. Additionally, the
CIP includes new extensions of
overhead and underground
feeders to new commercial and
residential developments, system
improvements projects for load
and reliability control, as well as
the service extensions from the
existing distribution system to
service new customers.

Age
To address the aging of the system, the CIP
includes projects to inspect, treat or replace
deteriorated poles and rehabilitate aging facilities.
In 2008/09, the Utility began a long term project to
identify and rehabilitate overhead & underground
facilities system wide including phased conversion
of its 12.5kV system to 25kV for reliability.
Regulatory Changes
The City’s electric system is subject to reliability standards of the North American Electric
Reliability Council (NERC), operational control and reliability through the Electric Reliability
Council of Texas (ERCOT). Due to the deregulated electric market in Texas, and the City’s
status as a non-opt-in municipal retail provider, the City must continue to monitor
developments in the Texas market place. The replacement of the AMR system with an AMI
system will support regulatory changes related to Smart-Grid. The City has a Conservation
and Environmental department to focus on conservation within the electric utility, including
the provision for capital investment in conservation-related projects.

Capital Improvement Plan
The City of Georgetown annually updates and adopts a five-year Capital Improvements Plan (CIP)
Schedule as part of the operating budget adoption process. Needed capital improvements are
identified through system models, repair and maintenance records, and growth. The City uses a team
approach to prioritizing capital improvement projects, whereby City staff from all operational areas
provide input and ideas relating to each project and its effect on operations, such as:
Fire and Police Services staff provides insight into a project’s impact on emergency traffic
responses, public lighting issues and other public safety concerns.
Planning & Development staff gives direction regarding new development and the
infrastructure needs relating to this growth.
Other utility departments, such as the Transportation Department, Electric Department and
Water Services Department exchange information regarding each project and coordinated
timing of many of the related projects in an effort to create less inconvenience for the citizens
affected.
The timeline for the CIP planning process is outlined below:
By using this team approach, the City develops cooperation among the departments, identifies
potential problem areas, and prioritizes financing issues.
The Capital Improvements Projects (CIP)
generally consists of infrastructure and
related construction and do not include small
capital items such as furniture, equipment
and vehicles. Significant maintenance
projects, such as street repairs are not
included in the capital project schedules.
These maintenance type projects are not
capitalized as a fixed asset and are always
cash funded; therefore, they are considered
operational in nature and are included in the
departmental operating budget. The CIP
schedules consolidate the capital spending
priorities for all operating activities of the City,
including all governmental and enterprise
activities that provide services to the citizens
of Georgetown.
The CIP Schedules are included as part of
the annual operating budget. The first year of
the list becomes the capital budget for the
approved budget year. The following pages
outline the CIP Schedule for each activity and
include anticipated projects, current year project location and sources of funding.

Transportation Services
Introduction
Transportation Services manages, maintains and repairs City streets and right-of-way. Some of the
additional responsibilities of the Street Department include traffic control, emergency response
operations, special events, and assistance in code enforcement. Daily responsibilities include inspection
of roadways for sign repair, pavement management and removal of sight obstructions. Transportation
Services has experienced a growth in demand for maintenance and rehabilitation of the City’s roadway
system.
The Street Department Capital Improvement
Budget includes maintenance and rehabilitation of
the City’s roadway system and support of new
transportation construction projects. Funding for
maintenance and rehabilitation from the City’s
General Fund is approximately $875,000 annually.
Street Maintenance Sales Tax
In November 2002, voters passed a quarter-cent
sales tax increase that became effective April 1,
2003. Proceeds from the new tax can only be used
to make improvements to streets in existence at the time of the election and cannot be used for
construction of new streets. Revenues from this tax equal approximately $2 million per year for
maintenance and rehabilitation of City streets. The tax was reauthorized by voters in November 2014;
the tax will not be brought back to the voters for reauthorization until November 2018. Projects funded by
the tax includes but not limited to; Quail Valley Subdivision, Western Trail and Sun City (north and south
of Del Webb Blvd.).
Georgetown Transportation Enhancement Corporation
In May 2001, voters approved a 4B half-cent sales tax for transportation improvements that provide
economic benefit to the community. The 4B is known as the Georgetown Transportation Enhancement
Corporation (GTEC). GTEC approves projects funded through this sales tax.
Overall Transportation Improvement Plan
The City adopted its Overall Transportation Plan (OTP) to guide the City’s growth and development, a
revision to the OTP is currently underway. It is through this plan that future road construction is projected.
As part of this process, The Georgetown Transportation Advisory Board (GTAB) recommends potential
projects to GTEC and the GTEC board approves its annual Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) which
includes projects identified in the City’s Overall Transportation Plan that meet the GTEC eligibility
requirements. The TIP is a five-year projection and is updated annually with year one being the annual
GTEC budget that is approved by the City Council. The GTEC budget is not included in this CIP
document.
The OTP is reviewed by GTAB which makes recommendations to the City Council. In November 2008,
voters authorized $46 million of General Obligation debt to be issued for road improvements.

2008 Voter Approved Transportation Bond Issue
The City continues to work on two projects related to the 2008 Voter Approved Transportation
Improvement Bond program, FM 1460 widening from Quail Valley Drive to University Boulevard and FM
971 Improvements at the intersection of North Austin Avenue.
The City has worked with TxDOT, Williamson County and the City of Round Rock to secure outside
funding to supplement the bond proposal to complete Right of Way (ROW) acquisitions and construction
of the remaining two segments of unimproved two lane rural FM 1460 to a four lane arterial with adequate
ROW for the ultimate six lanes. Project design is complete and let for construction by TxDOT,
construction to start in 2015 after all utilities have been relocated.
FM 971 intersection improvements at North Austin Avenue have been designed to improve access and
mobility around the site. Design is nearing completion and the environmental clearances are being
sought to make the project ready for construction bidding.
Historic Downtown
In the past few years, several rehabilitation and maintenance projects have focused on the Historic
Downtown Square Area. The City will continue efforts to maintain and rehabilitate Historic Georgetown,
as well as keep pace with the growth of our community.
GASB 34 – Modified Approach
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement Number 34 allows for an alternative to
depreciation expense for certain infrastructure, termed the modified approach. The following conditions
must be met:
• The government manages the eligible assets using an asset management system to:
o Keep an up-to-date asset inventory,
o Perform condition assessments and report the results on a measurement scale, and
o Estimate the annual amount to maintain and preserve the eligible infrastructure assets at
the condition level established and disclosed by the government
• The government must document that the eligible assets are being preserved approximately at or
above the condition level established and disclosed by the government.
The City completed its inventory and implemented its pavement management information system in
February 2005. The initial assessment rated Georgetown’s street condition as “good” with a 90
Pavement Condition Index (PCI). The Council has directed staff to incorporate a policy to maintain a
minimum average PCI of 85. Current funding should adequately fund that level of PCI within Georgetown
for the near future. The PCI for fiscal year 2011 was 87.7 and the PCI for 2014 was 87.3. Growth factors
in housing and new road construction could impact that condition over time. This system will be
monitored closely and reviewed in detail again in late 2017. The proposed CIP includes funding for an
update of the Pavement Management System in 2018.

Point Repair
Projected
Pavement has normally reached the end of its life and possibly has at least one overlay. Pavement need to be milled
down to or below original flow line. Grade point repairs will be made and then resurfaced with a one and one half inch
overlay of existing asphalt. This should extend the pavement's life an additional 10 to 15 years. Current year's areas for
thin overlay are expected to include; Texas Dr, Gabriel View Dr, Kathi Ln, Addie Ln, Brandi Ln, and Tiffany Ln.

In 2014, the City completed a review of the pedestrian network within the right of way in the City limits, as well as a
comprehensive accessibility review in the downtown district. The study evaluated the condition, presence of pedestrian
infrastructure and need as defined by public input, staff recommendations and legal requirements. The study
recommends $10 million in improvements to the network including $3.6 million in the downtown district. Recommended
improvements support the City's adopted ADA Transition Plan, the Downtown Master Plan, the Parks & Rec Trails
Master Plan, the Overall Transportation Plan and the City's Comprehensive Plan. Transportation Services has worked to
ensure pedestrian improvements are coupled with street and utility improvements to maximize the City's investment.

Stormwater Drainage Utility
Introduction
The Stormwater Drainage Utility manages and maintains stormwater infrastructure
operations and facilities. Some of the additional responsibilities of the Stormwater
Drainage Utility are assisting other Divisions in City code enforcement. Daily
responsibilities include drainage and flood control when needed, right-of-way mowing
and cleaning, street sign maintenance and street cleaning operations.
The Stormwater Drainage Utility has been focusing on meeting the Environmental
Protection Agency’s (EPA) Phase II regulations and requirements regarding stormwater
control in municipalities. In 2016, the City expects to continue efforts to meet the
stormwater control mandates.
The FY 2016 Five Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) includes projects aimed at
improving stormwater drainage, erosion control and the compilation of stormwater
assets. The Stormwater department completed the buy-out of eight homes in the Smith
Branch area as a mitigation measure against future flood damage.

Subprojects (000):
Projected
This project will consist of replacing deteriorating stand-up curbs with curb and gutter. Stand-up curbs throughout the
City will be evaulated on their condition and their potential to cause damage to roadways. The curbs identified in areas
with the poorest drainage are most likely to contribute to road damage. These curbs will be targeted for replacement.
These replacements will save the City from having to perform much more costly street rehabilitation.
