CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CIP) OVERVIEW
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a multi-year planning and budgeting process that helps the county identify, prioritize and fund major capital projects. The CIP aligns with the county’s Comprehensive Plan, supports longterm financial planning, establishes project priorities and coordinates with state and federal partners involved in implementing capital projects. It also serves as a central source of information on public infrastructure and construction.
The first year of the CIP is adopted as the capital budget and the Board of County Commissioners appropriates funds for those projects. The subsequent five years represent planned projects and funding needs. These years are not authorized until future budgets are adopted.
CAPITAL PROJECT DEFINITION
A capital project involves the acquisition of land, the construction of new facilities or significant improvements to existing assets. Projects typically have a value of $50,000 or more and a useful life of at least five years. Capital expenditures result in the acquisition, expansion or rehabilitation of long-term assets.
Capital projects are categorized as:
• New projects that expand services or capacity
• Replacement projects that address aging infrastructure or equipment
• Rehabilitation projects that extend the useful life of existing assets
Routine maintenance and operating expenses are not included in the CIP and are funded through the annual operating budget.
CAPITAL PLANNING AND PRIORITIZATION
The county evaluates and prioritizes capital projects using a structured approach that considers:
• Public safety and regulatory requirements
• Asset condition and lifecycle replacement needs
• Alignment with the Comprehensive Plan
• Service demand, growth and community benefit
• Financial affordability and funding availability
This process ensures that the county directs limited resources toward the highest priority needs while maintaining long-term fiscal sustainability.
The CIP reflects projects that can be funded within current and projected resources. The county identifies additional capital needs during the planning process. However, some projects are deferred due to funding constraints. These unmet needs are evaluated annually and may be incorporated into future CIP updates (budget adjustments) as resources become available.
PROJECT GROUPINGS AND FUNDING SOURCES
The CIP consists of two main project groupings:
• Capital Fund Projects (Governmental): Funded through the General Fund (Pay-Go), debt financing, excise tax (for schools, roads and recreation) and grants or other external sources.
• Enterprise Fund Projects: Funded through user fees, debt financing, capital connection fees and grants or other external sources.
CAPITAL FUNDING STRATEGY AND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
The county uses a balanced approach to funding capital investments. This strategy allows the county to deliver needed infrastructure while minimizing the immediate impact on taxpayers and maintaining flexibility for future needs.
• General Fund (Pay-As-You-Go/Pay-Go): Used for smaller projects, shorter-lived assets or to supplement other funding sources.
• Debt (e.g., General Obligation/GO Bonds): Used for larger, long-lived assets to align costs with the useful life of the asset.
• Excise Taxes and Capital Contributions: Dedicated revenues for growth-related infrastructure.
• Grants and External Funding: Leveraged to reduce reliance on local funding sources.
• Capital Fund Balance: Re-appropriation of available balances from completed or closed-out capital projects, limited to the capital budget year and subject to original funding source restrictions.
The county prioritizes pay-as-you-go funding where feasible and uses debt financing for long-lived assets to align costs with useful life. The county uses its Debt Affordability Model to ensure that debt levels remain within established policy limits. The county maintains a policy that debt service does not exceed 9.5% of General Fund revenues.
Debt financing allows the county to fund major capital investments over time, aligning costs with the residents who benefit from the assets. However, debt also results in long-term repayment obligations and interest costs. The county carefully evaluates each project to balance current needs with long-term financial impacts.
CAPITAL SPENDING TRENDS AND PROGRAM BALANCE
Capital spending levels vary from year to year based on project timing, construction schedules, availability of external funding and debt affordability. Periods of higher investment typically reflect major construction initiatives, while lower levels may reflect planning or design phases.
The CIP includes both one-time capital investments and recurring programs, such as equipment replacement, facility maintenance and infrastructure rehabilitation. Maintaining a balance between new investment and reinvestment in existing assets helps preserve infrastructure, sustain service levels and reduce long-term costs.
OPERATING IMPACT AND LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY
Capital projects directly affect the county’s operating budget. New or expanded facilities and infrastructure often require additional staffing, maintenance, utilities and other ongoing costs.
The county evaluates the operating impact of each project during the CIP development process to ensure that future costs can be supported within the operating budget. This coordination supports long-term financial stability and ensures that capital investments remain sustainable over time.
TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY
The CIP provides clear and accessible information on project scope, cost, funding sources and timing. Each project includes a description of its purpose, benefit and alignment with county goals, along with its current status and funding plan.
Through disciplined planning, financial management and transparent reporting, the county ensures that capital investments deliver long-term value to the community.
