Using the May 2026 Transportation Master Plan, Post Falls has defined a roads and multimodal capital facilities program being folded into the updated transportation impact fee. Near- and medium-term roadway projects include dozens of signal, intersection, and corridor improvements—such as Greensferry, Prairie, Hayden, Seltice Way, Spokane Street, and Pleasant View intersections and corridors—with impact-fee-eligible costs exceeding $46 million in 2026 dollars. Complementary multimodal projects (sidewalks, pathways, and bike/ped improvements like 3rd Ave multimodal, 12th Ave phases 1–2, Poleline and Pleasant View multimodal improvements, and Spokane Street sidewalk upgrades) total about $7.5 million over 2026–2036. These projects are being used to calculate transportation fees, but individual design and construction contracts have not been indicated, so the work remains in planning and funding setup. Transportation engineering, roadway construction, and multimodal design firms can view this as a multi-year pipeline of signal, corridor, and active transportation projects likely to be sequenced as impact fee revenue and other funding become available. Engaging with the Engineering and Public Works staff around project prioritization, design standards, and potential packaging into bundled contracts or on-call task orders can help position for upcoming RFQs and RFPs once the fee schedule is adopted.

The updated methodology combines roads and multimodal into a single transportation fee category and ...

As part of the impact fee study, Post Falls has identified a detailed Parks Capital Improvement Plan with near-term (2026–2030), medium-term (2030–2036), and undefined-location projects totaling over $68 million in 2026 dollars. Named projects include Corbin Dog Park, Corbin RV Park Phases 1–2, Black Bay Park Phases 2–3, Montrose Sports Complex Phase 2, Quarry Sports Complex Phases 1–3, multiple new neighborhood parks, skate park capacity expansion, Warren Playfield upgrades, city center park improvements, and trail connections such as Centennial Trail links and I‑90/Hwy 41 design. The parks CIP is still at the planning and fee-calculation stage; projects are not yet individually procured, and funding will depend on adopted impact fees, current fund balances, and other sources. For vendors in park design, landscape architecture, sports facility construction, playgrounds, trail engineering, RV park development, and related specialties, this represents a large pre-RFP pipeline. Early discussions with Parks & Recreation and Engineering staff about phasing, constructability, and packaging of these projects can position firms ahead of formal solicitations once fees are adopted and project funding is sequenced.

Parks CIP is derived from the 2020 Parks & Recreation Master Plan and current level of service stand...

The impact fee slides outline a police/public safety capital facilities plan including headquarters parking lot expansion, an 11,800 sq ft headquarters expansion, headquarters renovation, modular storage, a wireless facility lot, and wireless/communications facilities, with total 2026 costs around $15 million and approximately $13.8 million deemed impact-fee-eligible. These projects are based on the 2021 Public Facility Master Plan and are being used to set updated public safety impact fees, but procurement of design and construction services for the expansions and new facilities is not described, indicating that they are still in the planning and financing stage. The plan anticipates accommodating growth in population and non-residential development through 2035. For architecture, engineering, communications infrastructure, and construction firms, this is a strong signal of upcoming work on police facilities, secure storage, parking, and wireless/communications upgrades. Now is an appropriate time to discuss phasing strategies, site constraints, technology standards, and potential bundling of building and communication projects with the Police Department and Public Works before formal RFPs are developed.

The impact fee allocation assigns roughly 87.6% of public safety facility demand to residential deve...

During the June 10, 2026 council meeting, the Public Works department reported major electrical and hydraulic failures with the city’s 16-year-old Toolcat, which is heavily used for mowing, snow removal, and multiple attachments. Staff advised that, rather than investing in extensive repairs, the city should plan to replace the unit and shared preliminary pricing: about 88000 for a new Toolcat or 100000 for a Bobcat skid steer with high-flow hydraulics that could leverage existing attachments. No purchase decision was made; instead, the Public Works lead requested that equipment replacement funding be considered in upcoming budget discussions. This positions the replacement as a near-term budget item, with open questions around machine type, vendor, and financing. Vendors of compact equipment, skid steers, and municipal financing can engage now to help refine specs, compare lifecycle costs, and shape what ends up in the FY budget and eventual procurement approach.

Current unit supports multiple attachments; replacement decision will affect compatibility, specs, a...
