What is the status of major infrastructure projects like the Parkway Blvd. Overcrossing, new Fire Station and Police Department expansion and how does the City make sure they get built?

Dixon has several major capital projects moving forward that are funded through a mix of development impact fees, negotiated public benefits and grant funding. These projects are also guided by the City’s General Plan, which outlines long-range infrastructure priorities.

The Parkway Boulevard Overcrossing is currently in advanced design, with funding supported by a $25.2 million federal grant and local development fees. It is expected to go out to bid in Fall of 2026, with construction planned to begin shortly after.

The Police Department expansion at 160 S Jackson St. has successfully gone through the bidding process, has been awarded to a construction firm, and construction will start in June 2026. It is being funded through impact fees and a negotiated public benefit contribution.

Fire Station 82 in the Homestead area is in final design stages and is expected to go out to bid after completion of updated plans in mid-2026. Funding comes from impact fees, bonds and project-specific contributions.

To ensure these projects are delivered, the City uses a combination of secured funding sources, phased planning and formal construction bidding processes, along with oversight through the City Council and capital improvement program.
