On Aug. 10, the Troy City Council approved a $351,000 budget amendment to fund the Facilities Condition Assessment and Analysis project. The finished product will be a comprehensive document providing vital statistics on the 56 structures owned and maintained by the City of Troy. The document will also provide a summary of major findings relating to each building’s deficiencies and systems.

The City had its initial Facilities Condition Assessment and Analysis completed about 8 years ago. This document has served as the foundation for identifying facility deficiencies, prioritizing capital investments, supporting budget development, and making informed decisions about the City's growing infrastructure needs. The updated document, which is expected to be completed in about 10 months, will ensure future capital planning is based on current facility conditions and accurate asset information.
