#  Newton Capital Plan and Debt Capacity Analysis 

 



The Field Lab partnered with the City of Newton to examine the city’s capital budgeting process and its capacity to finance major capital investments, including the proposed Newton North High School project.



 

 ### Project Partner

City of Newton, Massachusetts



 

 ### Project Summary

Students worked with City financial data to develop a dynamic capital planning model that analyzed planned capital projects, projected revenues, and debt obligations. The model was designed to help evaluate the city’s capacity to finance new capital investments under different financial scenarios.



 

 ### Area of Focus

The team examined capital planning assumptions, debt service obligations, revenue growth projections, and scenario analysis related to the city’s ability to finance capital projects while maintaining target debt service levels.
