Bonds, City Bonds
Tuesday, February 3, 2015 by Elizabeth Pagano
Yesterday, Austin’s Capital Planning Office revealed online interactive charts showing the spending status of the city’s general obligation bonds. According to a statement to the press from the city, “The charts include bond funds that have already been invested in capital improvements projects from the 2013, 2012, 2010 and 2006 bond programs as well as funds that are under contract and what’s left remaining. The data will be updated quarterly.” For those who prefer raw data, the city has also made the information available through its data portal. And for those interested in bond spending distribution, interactive maps detail the city’s recent bond projects. The treasure trove of information can be found on the city’s Capital Improvements Visualization Information and Communication (CIVIC) website, which is located at this link.
