Treatment capacity and industrial development proposals
Wastewater capacity planning and a proposed industrial buildout are different kinds of future activity. A business can maintain a prospect forecast while keeping actual spending and commitments tied to authorized work. Track equipment purchases, consulting invoices and construction labor separately so the monthly report explains the stage of each project.

Transit capital and airport funding dependencies
The transit capital total covers a program, not simply the parking structure. Airport projects also have funding dependencies. Avoid combining these figures into assumed contracts. For work your business has secured, reconcile approved billings and direct costs by project and update the cash forecast when authorization or payment terms change.
- Downtown parking garage on Tipton Street (part of 18 Transit Capital Fund projects). Amount recorded: $19 million (transit capital program total). Source status (2026): CIP, contingent on grants. Agency: City of Visalia.
- Visalia Municipal Airport projects (nine planned, six dependent on state/federal funding). Source status (2026): CIP planning. Agency: City of Visalia.
- Six of nine planned Visalia Municipal Airport projects depend on state or federal funding (2026 CIP).
