Renewal Program

The overall renewal needs for the City’s Recreation, Culture, and Education facilities total nearly $3 billion over the next 10 years. Given funding constraints, the Plan recommends nearly $572 million from the General Fund and other local sources to meet these needs, as shown in Chart 12.1.
