CAPITAL EXPENDITURES COMMITTEE REPORT TO 2011 ATM <br /> The Mission of the Capital Expenditures Committee <br /> From the Code of the Town of Lexington(§29-13): <br /> A. Each year the Capital Expenditures Committee shall request and receive from the <br /> Town boards and departments a list of all capital expenditures that may be required <br /> within the ensuing five-year period. The Committee shall consider the relative need, <br /> timing and cost of these projects, the adequacy thereof and the effect these <br /> expenditures might have on the financial position of the Town. <br /> B. The Committee shall prior to each annual meeting for the transaction of business <br /> prepare, publish and distribute by making copies available at the office of the Town <br /> Clerk and at Cary Memorial Library, and by mailing or otherwise distributing to <br /> each town meeting member, a report of its findings, setting forth a list of all such <br /> capital expenditures together with the committee's recommendations as to the <br /> projects that should be undertaken within the five-year period and the approximate <br /> date on which each recommended project should be started. This publication may be <br /> combined with and distributed at the same time as the Appropriation Committee <br /> Report. <br /> From the Code of the Town of Lexington(§29-26): <br /> ...the Capital Expenditures Committee shall state whether it endorses each <br /> recommendation of the Community Preservation Committee. <br /> How to Read This Report <br /> Our report is divided into four sections: <br /> • An overview of capital projects in Lexington; <br /> • Presentation of a five-year capital budget; <br /> • Spending history and general capital plan for each department and program; and <br /> • This year's capital articles. <br /> Where our narrative includes a"See Article ",it is referring you to that Article in the last section <br /> "Warrant Article Analysis and Recommendations". In that section you will find: <br /> We have quoted from the Town's or a Town Committee's documentation for each of the <br /> Articles on which we are reporting. If we believe that quote has both adequately <br /> described the proposed work and satisfactorily made the case for the Town's need, at <br /> least for the purpose of your deliberations which is often the case you will not find us <br /> paraphrasing or otherwise reiterating either of those matters in this report. However, <br /> additional narrative is included if we don't feel that is the case. <br /> Our Committee's recommendations and how we voted are shown only in the boxed <br /> header for each Article and, if applicable, in any sub-elements unless there are further <br /> comments on our recommendation. If there are such comments, they will be in italics at <br /> the end of the text below the boxed header. <br /> Our oral report on Town Meeting floor will verify our written report and present any new information not <br /> available as of this writing. When we report on a capital article on Town Meeting floor during the <br /> deliberations, a committee member will provide the committee's recommendation and, if applicable, <br /> comments related to that recommendation. <br /> 7 <br />
