Summary
Interim Finance Director Priscilla Moxie told staff the city spent about $513,000 on Amazon purchases between May 1, 2025 and April 30, 2026 but had prior authorization for only $150,000; staff will ask the commission to ratify expenses and approve an additional $214,012 and authority to piggyback an Omnia contract.
Interim Finance Director Priscilla Moxie told staff the City Commission will be asked to ratify citywide purchases already made and to approve an additional expenditure to cover the remainder of the fiscal year.
"In between May 1 of 25 and April 30 of 26, the city spent approximately 513,000," Moxie said during the staff workshop, adding that the city had only been authorized for $150,000 under last year's resolution. She said staff is bringing a resolution to ratify those expenses and to authorize an additional $214,012 to cover the fiscal year 2026 line.
Moxie also said staff seeks permission to piggyback the Omnia contract (contract number LS4679), which the presentation listed as expiring in 2030, to continue citywide purchasing under that vendor arrangement. The staff workshop was informational; the resolution is scheduled for the Commission consent agenda the next day.
