Navajo President Joe Shirley Jr. presented a five-year $429 million capital improvement plan to a Navajo Nation Council committee on Thursday.
The plan includes 320 projects. They include 31 economic development, business infrastructure projects valued at $87.4 million, seven elder care, nursing home projects valued at $47.5 million, 12 trauma system projects valued at $13.2 million, seven public safety-correctional-judicial government centers valued at $145 million and 262 chapter projects valued at $134.3 million.
Shirley said he is open to changes. He hopes the plan can go before the full council.
