About the Capital Outlay Committee
Annually department and division heads submit capital requests to the General Manager's office who compiles the Capital Improvement Plan on behalf of the Capital Outlay Committee. Once assembled, the completed Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is delivered to the Capital Outlay Committee. The Capital Outlay Committee then meets and deliberates on merits of each project and makes recommendations as to which projects should be funded in the upcoming budget year.
Ultimately, the decisions as to what projects are or are not funded are made by Town Meeting and are subject to appropriation. The Capital Outlay Committee's recommendations are taken into consideration by the Board of Selectmen, the Finance Commission and of course Town Meeting.
