The MCIA offers pooled equipment financings to interested
municipal governments and Middlesex County agencies.CAPITAL EQUIPMENT & IMPROVEMENT FINANCING PROGRAM
Due to changes in the CAP law and new policies issued by the New Jersey Division of Local Government services, the MCIA's annual Capital Equipment Lease Program became the Capital Equipment Financing Program in 2008. Equipment and capital improvements are now included under the program. Most items financed continue to be outside the CAP and there is no required down payment. The usual efficiencies of scale and cost savings were realized through this newly-constructed financing program, and the 2009 series has produced the same benefits. The 2010 program is underway.
