# Peoria Identifies Infrastructure Funding Gap

Peoria’s Public Works Department reports a funding shortfall of more than 50% compared with the resources needed for planned infrastructure projects over the next 30 years. The report identifies no active solicitation or contract, but future city budget decisions and capital-plan procurements may affect the timing and scale of municipal infrastructure work in Peoria, Illinois.

- Contractors focused on municipal roads and infrastructure can use the reported gap as context when assessing potential future city work; no specific project, contract value, or procurement contact is identified.
- Businesses should follow Peoria City Council budget decisions and future capital plans for concrete procurement opportunities as funding priorities are determined.
