Capital Projects

The City of Evans is consistently working on Capital Improvement Projects to make Evans the Community of Choice in Northern Colorado. These projects range from small in scope - such as annual concrete replacement projects that improve curb and gutter areas and repair sidewalks - to large-scale, multi-year improvements like the construction of the new Evans Police Station and the 37th Street widening project. All of these projects are undertaken with an adherence to industry approved practices and rigorous financial oversight. 

Whatever the scope, the City is required to seek out multiple bids to ensure both the efficacy of the work as well as the best possible value for taxpayers. Every project the City undertakes, from adding new playground equipment to one of our parks to upgrading our stormwater infrastructure, goes through a competitive bid process whereby licensed contractors with a résumé of successful project completion in their subject matter area, submit bids that meet the project scope, timeline for completion, and are within budget. From there, the acceptable bids are brought before the City Council for review, analysis and, potentially, contract award. The process does not end there, however, as the City exercises project supervision from surveying the site to sign-off on the completed work.

The 1% Road Ahead sales tax, approved by voters in 2020, has provided a critical source of funding to expand, improve, and perform much needed maintenance work on our City's roadways. To meet the demands of a growing community, foster economic resiliency, and improve the quality of life for all who live, work and play in Evans, projects like these are critical. To take a closer look at the projects undertaken thanks to The Road Ahead sales tax, please check out the Road Tax Report.
