Summary

At its Nov. 5 meeting the Committee of the Whole approved the prior meeting minutes, voted to refer an ARPA obligation resolution to the board, authorized a grant application for a Porter Park fitness circuit, and approved a public works fencing purchase.

The Committee of the Whole took four formal votes at its Nov. 5 meeting.

- Approval of minutes: The committee approved the minutes for the Oct. 15, 2024 Committee of the Whole meeting. Motion to approve was made by Trustee Simon and seconded; roll call reflected affirmative votes from trustees present and one trustee absent.

- ARPA obligation referral: The committee voted to send a resolution obligating approximately $1.4 million in American Rescue Plan Act funds to specified projects and general government services to the full board (moved by Ed Hart; seconded by Saima). Roll call indicated approval by trustees present; one trustee was absent.

- National Fitness Campaign grant application: The committee authorized staff to apply for the National Fitness Campaign grant for an adult fitness circuit at Porter Park. The authorization is to apply only; any award would return to the board for purchase approval.

- Public works fencing: The committee approved procurement of chain-link fencing and gates at two locations at the public works facility, with a vendor cost listed in the packet of approximately $15,000.

Each vote was taken by roll call; the meeting record notes one trustee absent during votes. Where motions did not identify a mover or seconder on the record, the committee's roll call recorded the affirmative votes of those present.
