Affordability
tax-supported capital costWhat the plan costs a taxpayer — which is not what it costs.
tax-supported capital cost = reserve deposits + debt service + pay-as-you-go.
Deposits are counted on the required basis — switch to what is budgeted today. Budgeted is what is in this year's warrant; required is what the plan implies once every fund is kept solvent. Scenarios always use required.
Never gross outlay. A withdrawal from a capital reserve fund does not raise the tax rate in the year of withdrawal — the deposit did, in an earlier year. Most municipal capital plans get this wrong.
No assessed valuation has been loaded, so none of this converts to a rate per $1,000 — which is what the CIPC memo actually asks for. The stack below is in dollars. One column of data away.
