A Capital Improvement Project (CIP) is a project that results in a permanent addition to the City's assets through the acquisition of property, new construction, or rehabilitation of an existing facility to a like-new condition. Typical CIP projects are $25,000 or more.

PNARB's page includes a schedule of upcoming PNARB meetings and their location. Questions can be directed to Jacqueline Rochefort, Parks Planner, at 541-766-6468.
