    CANDIDATE MUST BE SERVING PERMANENTLY IN THE TITLE OF CITY PLANNER OR REACHABLE ON THE CITY PLANNER CIVIL SERVICE LIST
  • THE AGENCY
  • The Department of City Planning (DCP) plans for the strategic growth and development of the City through groundup planning with communities, the development of land use policies and zoning regulations applicable citywide, and sharing its perspectives on growth and community needs with sister agencies in collaboration with the Mayor's Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
  • THE DIVISION
  • The Capital Planning team works to foster more collaborative and equitable capital planning through strategic coordination with agency partners, data analysis, and technology.
  • City agencies are planning to invest over $159 billion in New York City's infrastructure and buildings over the next decade. The Capital Planning team supports City agencies as they strategically plan their facility siting and
- infrastructure investment. We do this by reforming existing processes, developing capital investment programs, and disseminating data-driven planning analytics. We are responsible for integrating planning perspectives into the City's capital budget planning and decision-making processes.

  • Our work supports the City's capital investment in a variety of ways:
  • We work alongside planners in the City's capital agencies and DCP's borough offices to shape specific projects that complement neighborhood plans, including the Strategy for Equity and Economic Development (SEED) Fund, which integrates capital investments into neighborhood-scale plans.
  • We support citywide planning initiatives through a capital lens, particularly surrounding housing and industrial planning.
  • We inform capital budget priorities by jointly developing the City's Ten-Year Capital Strategy with the Mayor's Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and evaluating the effect that capital investments can have on neighborhoods and citywide planning priorities with an eye towards growth and equity.
  • We inform and support how partner agencies approach facilities planning, such as ensuring that we use the relevant community facilities data in DCP's environmental review process, and compiling agency needs for inclusion in the Citywide Statement of Needs.
  • We build and maintain data sets to share information about capital budgeting and spending, city facilities, capital needs and more in order to bring transparency to the capital planning process.
  • We foster the use of data and technology tools in integrated capital planning decisions, including the Capital Planning Explorer, to improve collaboration and outcomes.


We are a diverse, tight-knit team operating to radically improve capital planning, budget prioritization, and decision-making in support of City priorities.


  • THE ROLE
  • We are seeking an Associate Analyst to support and expand our impact in several areas. The Associate Analyst role will be particularly focused on ensuring that the city is planning strategically for growth and equity in capital planning, both shortterm and longterm, and both citywide and at the neighborhood level. This will require strong project management and analytical work to serve as the foundation for much of our ability to create change.

Potential projects the Associate Analyst could work on include the following:


  • Data Modeling and Spatial Analysis

The Citywide Statement of Needs provides details on agency space needs and facility plans, and is used as a planning tool that can inform the fair distribution of facilities and efficient and costeffective service delivery.
