Capital Improvements: One-year Plan


            The City of Bedford Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a process by which the City develops a plan for major
            capital  expenditures.  CIP  projects  include  improvements  that  are  relatively  expensive,  non-recurring,  have  a
            multi-year useful life, and result in  xed assets. For example, the construction and acquisition of new buildings;
            additions  or  renovations  to  existing  buildings;  construction  and  reconstruction  of  streets;  improvements  to
            water, sanitary sewer, and drainage; and purchases of land and major equipment. Due to the nature and total
            cost of most of the City’s CIP, General Obligation and Revenue Bonds and Certi cates of Obligation are major
            sources of funding.

            Departments  submit  their  requests  for  projects  annually  during  the  budget  process.    City  Management
            reviews  the  requests  and  determines  what  will  be  included  for  funding  in  the  proposed  budget.    The  City
            Council  makes  the   nal  determination  on  which  projects  will  be  included  in  the  budget  based  on  available
            funding.    Projects  are  reviewed  based  on  need,  priority  from  a  study  (if  relevant),  and  funding  availability.
            Projects  that  are  requested  but  unable  to  be  included  in  the  budget  show  a  funding  source  of  "unfunded,"
            indicating their status, but leaving the need known in case funding becomes available in the current  scal year.

            The  new  Public  Works  Director  and  City  Engineer  are  currently  reviewing  the  City's  ongoing  projects  and
            master  plans;  therefore,  we  are  not  requesting  any  projects  be  approved  at  this  time.  Instead,  we  will  bring
            forth a budget amendment to request approval of any projects at a future date.
