Aldermen approve budget amendment using reserves for replacement projects
Summary
The Brentwood Board approved Resolution 1517 to use reserves earmarked since 2019 for replacement projects, moving some police-related replacement funding into FY2026 and approving a budget amendment now to apply remaining reserves.
The Brentwood Board of Aldermen unanimously approved Resolution 1517 at a special meeting on Aug. 27, 2024, authorizing a budget amendment that calls on reserves set aside in a 2019 resolution to fund replacement projects.
An unidentified staff member told the board that a 2019 resolution established replacement reserves and that $700,000 had been originally earmarked; roughly $447,000 remaining for police department replacements is now planned for FY2026, and the board approved moving available reserves to cover current needs. The staff memo in BoardDocs was cited as detailing funding sources and how the adjustment will be recorded against the FY2025 and FY2026 schedules.
The presiding official moved to approve Resolution 1517; the motion was seconded, a roll call was conducted and, as recorded in the meeting, the motion carried by a vote recorded in the transcript as 6 to 0. Staff said further discussions will follow with the police chief regarding timing for replacements planned in FY2026.
