Multi-Year Capital Plan
The Village’s Multi-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is part of the long term strategic planning process. The CIP is presented annually as part of the financial planning and reporting process. Each year, Village staff from all departments meet to update the CIP. The updated Plan is then presented to the Village Board in the fall in conjunction with the Multi-Year Financial Forecast which outlines available capital funding.
The CIP specifically focuses on how resources will be allocated for building and maintaining roads, facilities, vehicles and the water and sewer systems. Better planning, particularly with regards to high-cost capital items, maximizes the life of each piece of infrastructure and helps keep taxes low.
The plan provides information on maintenance and replacement activities for the Village's Transportation System, Water & Sewer System, Stormwater Management System, Buildings and Facilities and Vehicles and Equipment.
The CIP is designed to focus on maintaining the Village’s existing assets as well as long range planning for upgrade and expansion as community needs evolve. The Plan is developed with input from the Village Board, Staff and consultants.
