These are the top five ICIP projects chosen by the City of Alamogordo
City of Alamogordo Commissioners and Alamogordo Grant Coordinator Deborah Osborne named the top five projects in the city's five-year Infrastructure Capital Improvement Plan (ICIP) for 2025 through 2029.
The ICIP proposed projects cover what city officials and residents deem to be crucial or dire infrastructure projects around the city. These projects may include outdated facilities needing renovations or a new addition to an already in place facility or organization.
According to the New Mexico Department of Finance and Administration website, the list does not provide funding rather highlights information about each proposed project for future state and federal funding opportunities.
“The ICIP is used to establish priorities for anticipated capital improvement projects to help prevent emergency situations and it is not a grant application,” Osborne said at an Aug. 8 commission meeting.
Osborne said this can increase future funds for Alamogordo as state, federal and private funding agencies use the cities ICIP for grant applications.
