1.5.18 Capital Improvement Plans
Capital improvement plans help a community match the costs of future capital improvements, for such things as roads, sewers, and public water systems, to anticipated revenues. A capital improvement plan can provide a vital link to other plans and insure that a community’s spending priorities match the community’s vision.
In light of the variety of planning activities that a community may undertake, it is important that the community explore the relationships that exist between these different planning activities and attempt to provide a comprehensive framework.
