Planning Board asks departments to submit CIP requests by May 15, forwards spreadsheet for reference
Summary
The Planning Board reviewed the Capital Improvement Plan spreadsheet, discussed inflation estimation challenges, and voted to forward last year’s spreadsheet to department heads as a reference, with a submission deadline of May 15.
The Greenland Planning Board reviewed its Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) spreadsheet and set a timeline for department submissions. Board members noted that estimating inflation for capital purchases is difficult and that the 4% factor used last year may not suit all items; they asked department heads to provide more precise cost estimates.
The Board set Friday, May 15 as the deadline for departments to submit CIP request forms. Planning consultant Mark Fougere said he would prepare an updated GIS map for the Town Center Overlay District to accompany future discussions. Heather Droesch moved to forward last year’s CIP spreadsheet to department heads for reference; Frank Catapano seconded and the motion carried.
What happens next: the Board will review departmental submissions in June or July, with an eye toward coordinating with the Selectmen and Budget Committee before the next budget cycle.
Sources and context: The discussion and motion were recorded at the Planning Board work session on April 16, 2026.
