The Village of Waukesha approved a budget amendment moving surplus-auction proceeds into the 2025 budget to fund tablet replacements in emergency vehicles and split between fire and public works. Speaker 3 introduced the amendment and identified the total proceeds as $22,334; the board approved the amendment by roll-call vote (Stigler, White, Niles, Adams and Regalts recorded as voting in the affirmative).
"So it's 22,334 total," Speaker 3 said during the discussion. Staff noted the funds come from a recent surplus auction that included an ambulance and other equipment and that the money will allow the village to replace outdated in-vehicle tablets before year-end.
In related budget business, the board approved a single-month accounts payable payment of $1,149,073.47. Speaker 3 explained the unusually large total is primarily a one-time full payment for a paving project that in prior years had been paid in multiple installments. Speaker 1 moved to pay the bills and the motion was seconded; a voice vote was recorded and the motion carried.
The meeting packet contained a numeric breakdown used to reconcile the auction totals (the transcript records both $22,334 and $22,234 in discussion; the board relied on the packet for the final reconciliation). The transcript does not provide line-item contracts or vendor names for the paving payment beyond the explanation that it represents a single large contract payment in the current fiscal period.
