Regional Performance Incentive Program

The Regional Performance Incentive Program was established in 2007 to encourage municipalities to participate in voluntary intermunicipal or regional shared services projects that have the potential to produce measurable “economies of scale”, provide desired or required public services, and lower the costs and tax burdens associated with the provision of such services.

The Office of Policy and Management (OPM) is accepting applications for the Regional Performance Incentive Program (RPIP) on a rolling basis. Eligible entities are Regional Councils of Governments and Regional Education Service Centers.

Funding for RPIP is provided under CGS Section 4-66k from a portion of hotel and car rental taxes pursuant to CGS Section 12-408. 

There are no application deadlines. Rather, OPM conducts periodic reviews of the applications received - around the beginning of both the fiscal year and the calendar year. OPM will announce grant awards on a rolling basis until available funds are committed.

Previously submitted and unfunded applications are held for a period of six months for reconsideration. If there are substantive changes to the project scope of work, budget and/or participants from a previous application, a new application is required.
