The Clovis city commission will spend today deciding its top five priorities for potential capital outlay from the state.
The commission will meet at 5:15 p.m. for its regular meeting, with the annual Infrastructure Capital Improvement Plan on the agenda.
The ICIP is a list submitted annually to the state to help legislators and the governor’s office determine where best to send any money the state may receive from oil and gas revenues.
Some of the ongoing projects that have received funding include the Ute Water pipeline regional project, the city’s effluent reuse system, street improvements (specifically Seventh Street and Martin Luther King Boulevard), a municipal airport fuel island and a new Clovis senior center.
The meeting will be preceded by a 4:45 p.m. executive session covering the acquisition or disposal of property.
