Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
•What and why
•Development process
•Examples and resources
What is it?
� A Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is the multi-year scheduling of public improvements and infrastructure replacement.
What a Capital Improvement Plan
Should Not Be:
� A wish list that is never completed.
� Treatment facilities never built
� Vehicles not purchased
� Leaking mains not replaced.
Reasons Why Communities Resist CIPs
� Might lock a jurisdiction into projects
� Isn’t flexible
� Commits them to a future debt
� Causing higher rates to support future replacements.
Why Communities Need a CIP
� CIP saves money, by identifying upcoming needs
� It allows a community to spend money wisely, rather than paying top dollar in crisis mode.
� By looking at long term costs, it promotes financial and rate stability.
� Reduces the monies that otherwise would be paid as interest.
� Informs leaders, so they can educate the public.
Why Communities Need a CIP
Seven Steps in Developing a CIP
� Strategic Planning
� Step 1: What are you going to do.
� Step 2: How to do it.
� Identifying Projects
� Step 3: Inventory assets
� Step 4: Prioritize projects
� Budgeting
� Step 5: Analyze financial capacity
� Financial Planning
� Step 6: Funding options
� The Comprehensive Plan
� Step 7: Draft CIP package
Seven Steps in Developing a CIP
Strategic Planning Step 1: What are we going to do?
� Appoint a coordinating committee or person.
� Distinguish between a CIP or an operating expense.
� Decide how long to plan for and timetable for the process.
� Important to include public opinion early and often.
Strategic Planning Step 2: How to do it?
Develop Policy Framework:
� Prioritize capital improvement projects.
� When to use loans or outside money.
� Set these policies early.
Develop Policy Framework:
� Should answer two questions.
� Are we doing what we planned to do?
� Are we getting the results we intended?
Strategic Planning Step 2: How to do it?
CIP Strategic Plan
� Measured by:
� Comparing budgeted CIP to actual work completed.
� Completing projects on schedule
Step 3: Inventory Assets
� List all existing capital equipment and facilities
� Estimate the replacement cost for each item
� Determine the expected life span
� Review system growth rates
� Monitor Federal and State regulatory mandates
� Evaluate infrastructure conditions
� Use staff input in the CIP process
� Identify customer service needs
� Prepare a list of long range capital items
Step 3: Inventory Assets
� Record original cost and purchase date
� Maintain records of fixed assets and equipment
� Review accounting depreciation schedule
Step 3: Inventory Assets
Project information needed:
� Assign project ID #
� Project description and location
� Estimated start and finish dates
Step 3: Inventory Assets
Project information needed:
� Estimated project or equipment cost
� Financing method to be used
� Group and categorize similar projects
Step 3: Inventory Assets

Step 5: Analyze Financial Capacity
� Examine past and present finances
� Compare budgets with actual expenditures
� Check key financial ratios
� Debt service >25-30% of user rate
� User rate not to exceed 1.5-2.0% of MHI per year
Step 5: Analyze Financial Capacity
� Determine current financial condition
� Identify capital financing alternatives
� Estimate annual CIP and operating expenses over the planning period
� Calculate revenue required to cover expenses
� Assess impact on customer rates
Step 5: Analyze Financial Capacity
� Set up an interest bearing reserve account to fund future improvements
� An emergency reserve account
� Large facility capital improvements usually require some additional financing
Step 6: Funding Options
� How will the needed improvements be paid for?
� Few 100% grants
� Loans
� Assessment districts
� Reserve funds
� May need to raise rates
Federal and State Programs to Finance Improvements
� Community Development Block Grants
� USDA-RUS loans
� State Drinking Water Revolving Loan Fund.
� RCAC and other Sources of funds
� Website: California Financing Coordinating Committee (www.cfcc.ca.gov)
Step 7: The Comprehensive Plan
� Draft a CIP plan for public review
� Prioritized projects and link to funding sources
� Create a timeline
� Use as a guide for budgeting

A-2 Critical Number
Critical Number Description
1The water system would essentially shut down if this component fails. This asset has no backup and is so important that an emergency plan must be in place as well as funding to replace it. Example: Single well pump failure; single reservoir failure; anything that could cause a violation of the Safe Drinking Water Act.
2This asset would have a serious impact on the water system if it failed, however, procedures could fix the problem within a reasonable time. Example: Two wells and primary wellpump fails; Electrical compents in panels fail: backflow assembly did not pass testing; key pipe failure that could be repaired; single chlorinator failure; pressure reducing valve failure.
3The condition of this asset causes continued unnecessary operational costs to your utility. Examples: deteriorating buildings, equipment and rolling stock; leaks in piping; old and worn-out electrical equipment.
4This asset's condition or failure may cause inconvenience to customers via reduced service, outages, or minor taste or odor complaints. Examples: excessive leaks, valves frozen partway closed, hydrants not working so flushing cannot be done; poor billing program.
5These assets have been in service for a long time and their condition may not be well known. Evaluation should take place and a determination made as to what may be needed.
