Infrastructure funding! – with Jim Proce

Kevin speaks with Jim Proce, City Manager for the City of Anna, Texas, about a pressing issue many cities are facing: the struggle to find the money needed to maintain and replace streets and other infrastructure built back in their growth years. Also discussed in this episode:

  • The difference between street maintenance and replacement, and how they're each typically funded

  • How cities typically prioritize maintenance and CIP projects

  • How Jim is approaching his job in a city that is in the midst of its fast-growth phase
