Blufftown Council approves $50,000 transfer to cover initial park payment and pays routine bills
Summary
Council approved a $50,000 transfer from PTRF to general checking to cover a $41,883.75 initial payment to 'Garrett Parks and Play' for park work, along with other routine payables including a cemetery survey retainer and legal fees.
At its Oct. 28 special meeting, the Blufftown Council approved routine accounts-payable transactions and a $50,000 transfer from the PTRF account to general checking to cover an initial payment to the town’s park contractor.
Staff reported the transfer would cover a $41,883.75 first payment to "Garrett Parks and Play" for park work; the grant associated with the project (identified by staff at the Utah Parks and Recreation level) will reimburse the town at the end of the project. The accounts-payable packet also included a cemetery-survey retainer, September legal fees, community-center maintenance work and $653.80 in public-notice costs.
Speaker 6 moved to pay the bills and effect the requested transfer; the motion was seconded and approved unanimously.
Council members noted they will watch reimbursement timing from the grant and indicated that if future significant increases occur the town would pursue a budget amendment. No specifics about contract terms beyond the first payment were stated in the meeting packet presented to council.
