5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)

The Town of Beacon Falls 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) was constructed by its Finance Department, Board of Finance and Board of Selectman with crucial assistance and input from all operating departments during CY 2019 and 2020. It was officially approved and published on October 12 and 13th, 2020 by the BOS and BOF (respectively). 

This is a living document that is amended as-needed by the BOS and BOF as new information arises. At a minimum, the CIP is updated annually. It acts as a plan for the Town for all capital items including (but not limited to): roads, bridges, infrastructure, vehicles, equipment, and buildings.

The annual Capital Budget found here, is created every year using this CIP as a base/starting point; this CIP is designed to be exhaustive. However, some items/projects included may not get funded in the perscribed year due to various circumstances such as grant awards/deadlines, project timeline delays, other funding limitations, etc. Some items, therefore, might get moved up a year or pushed back a year. This 5-year CIP is part of a larger 10-year CIP, which the Finance Department and boards/departments utilize internally for long-range planning.

The current version is FY2021 - FY2025 and totals $29.7M across all funds and all departments. Please direct any and all questions regarding this document to the Finance Department. 

*This document will be updated following shortly after the regular annual FY25 operating and capital budget adoption in May 2024.
