Parks and Recreation staff asked budget staff to add an impact‑fee line of $70,000 and the corresponding revenue to the Parks fund and requested capital funding to purchase a vehicle, estimating a $30,000 budget need.

"We'll get the 70 for the in here," Speaker 1 said when confirming the impact‑fee line. Participants agreed the impact‑fee revenue must appear on both the revenue sheet and the Parks and Recreation budget schedule.

On vehicle needs, Parks staff described the department’s desire for an SUV or minivan sized vehicle that could haul canners and event equipment. Staff estimated a reasonable purchase target at about $30,000 and proposed using $5,000 carried forward plus $25,000 from the current year, or other internal shifts, so the full $30,000 would be budgeted. "I think 30,000, we could probably find something," Speaker 8 said.

Staff discussed options to offset the purchase: applying $5,000 carryforward, reallocating from a part‑time line (4020004) and selling an older vehicle (a 2014 Journey) at auction to recoup additional funds. The group also agreed staff could use internal cash carryforward as needed and that any trade‑in or auction proceeds would go back into the general fund.

Parks staff also mentioned a community pole‑vault exhibition scheduled the next day featuring 50 jumpers from middle school through collegiate and professional levels; that event does not require budget action but illustrates the operational needs the vehicle would serve.

Why it matters: The decision to include impact fees and to budget a replacement/utility vehicle affects Parks and Recreation’s operating capacity for events and capital reserves in the department’s fund.

Next steps: Budget staff will add a $70,000 impact‑fee revenue line and a $30,000 capital request for Parks and Recreation to the working documents and circulate updated pages.
