The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is the State’s largest school construction grant program, averaging at least $280 million per year in recent years. The Program is governed by Title 5, Subtitle 3 of the Education Article, Annotated Code of Maryland and regulations promulgated by the Interagency Commission on School Construction in the Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR). CIP funding can be used for major new, renewal, or replacement projects as well as for addition projects or capital maintenance projects (systemic renovations). The CIP includes supplemental funding from the Significant Enrollment Growth and Relocatable Classroom (EGRC) Capital Grant Program.
