Capital Improvements Plan Committee

The Committee is appointed by the Board of Selectmen.  The CIP Committee is charged with directing the capital improvements planning process, based upon the Town's adopted master plan goals and recommendations.  The CIP process begins each year with a request for project submittals distributed by the Office of Community Development to the school districts and all Town departments, commissions and boards.  The Committee meets weekly from August to October, or more frequently if required.  If you are interested in serving, please fill out this application form and submit to Kristy Jobin at [email protected]

The Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) is a program authorized by State law to link local infrastructure investments with master plan goals, land use ordinances, and economic development and by bridging that gap the fiscal realities of improving and expanding community facilities are realized.

As authorized by RSA 674:5-8 the CIP is the responsibility of the Planning Board or a formally appointed capital improvements program committee, to prepare and amend a recommended program of municipal capital improvements projected over a period of at least six years. The CIP is designed to be updated and adopted annually to provide timely tool to the Board of Selectmen and School Boards in long-range planning of municipal expenditures.
