$78 million 10-year capital program with $14 million annual operating budget; unfilled needs will require new funding.

Dogwood Veterans Memorial pedestrian bridge
No new construction funding committed, but the city will take on future maintenance of the bridge and parking area.
Downtown Mall maintenance and lighting
No specific figures yet — the point of the discussion is to get ahead of future repair bills like brick replacement.
