Buckeye voters approved the city’s first general obligation (GO) bonds in nearly four decades during the November election. Now, the city is considering which projects to fund and when the construction and design processes can begin.
The Buckeye City Council held a workshop session on Feb. 4 regarding the $282 million the city has from the bond authorizations, of which $137 million will go toward public safety, and the remaining $145 million is for transportation and street improvements.
According to Doug Sandstrom, the deputy city manager, the city can start construction “in the next couple of months” on some projects following the issuance of the first phase of bond debt.
