Capital Projects

Go to the Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Map Viewer

The City of St. Cloud invests millions of dollars into a variety of construction projects every year. These capital improvement projects include updating our streets for improved mobility and improving our stormwater system. Capital improvement projects can also include investments to build or rehabilitate buildings such as fire and police stations and recreational facilities. These critical, long-term investments help support our economic vitality and promote livable neighborhoods.

These projects can be in any one of a variety of stages—planning, design, procurement, construction and closeout—and vary in length of time from several months to several years. Regardless of their size or scope, these types of projects provide a tangible example of how we are Transforming St. Cloud’s Tomorrow.
