Governor Deval Patrick's Five Year Capital Investment Plan FY2013 - FY2017

Governor's Capital Investment Plan FY2013

Aggregate FY13-17 Capital Investment Plan


The full five-year capital investment plan by major investment categories is presented below.  All specific projects and programs expected to be funded in FY13 are identified in Appendix C, and descriptions of all of these projects and programs are included in Appendix D.  It should be noted that many of the projects funded in FY13 are multi-year projects with costs that will be incurred in subsequent fiscal years; these projected future costs have been taken into account in making investment category reservations for future years.  It is also important to note that projects will evolve and change, and A&F intends to adjust the capital investment plan during the fiscal year as circumstances dictate.  Each new fiscal year, A&F will also undertake a formal reassessment of capital investment needs to develop an annual update to the five-year capital investment plan.

Total Bond Cap by Year and by Major Investment Category

The following table and chart show the allocation of bond cap spending by year and then by major investment category.  Note that FY13 includes $93 million in unused capacity from the prior fiscal year. The Administration has conservatively constrained the bond cap in FY16 and FY17 at the FY15 level. Future debt affordability analysis may show sufficient revenue growth to allow increased bond cap in future plans.
