Sheet 3 - Levy CAP
P.L. 2007, c. 62, was amended by P.L. 2008 c. 6 and P.L. 2010 c. 44 (S-29 R1).
The last amendment reduces the 4% to 2% and modifies some of the exceptions and
exclusions. It also removes the LFB waiver. The voter referendum now requires a vote in
excess of only 50% which is reduced from the original 60% in P.L. 2007, c. 62.

This section is included with the Annual Budget pursuant to N.J.A.C. 5:30-4. It does not in itself confer any authorization to raise or expend
funds. Rather it is a document used as part of the local unit's planning and management program. Specific authorization to expend funds for purposes
described in this section must be granted elsewhere, by a separate bond ordinance, by inclusion of a line item in the Capital Improvement Section of this
budget, by an ordinance taking the money from the Capital Improvement Fund, or other lawful means.
CAPITAL BUDGET
- A plan for all capital expenditures for the current fiscal year.
If no Capital Budget is included, check the reason why:
Total capital expenditures this year do not exceed $25,000, including appropriations for Capital Improvement Fund,
Capital Line items and Down Payments on Improvements.
No bond ordinances are planned this year.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
- A multi-year list of planned capital projects, including the current year.
Check appropriate box for number of years covered, including current year:
X
3 years. (Population under 10,000)
6 years. (Over 10,000 and all county governments)
years exceeding minimum time period.
Check if municipality is under 10,000, has not expended more than $25,000 annually for capital purposes in immediately
previous three years, and is not adopting CIP.
