Committee sends Rains Road funding and capital ordinance to Briefing; Finch Foundation gift noted
Summary
Finance Director Thomas Avant presented a $15,065 budget amendment for the Rains Road Pump Station, insurance proceeds for a police accident, and a $50,000 Finch Foundation donation earmarked for skate-park half-pipe renovations; the committee voted to place the amendment and a related capital ordinance on the upcoming Briefing agenda.
Finance Director Thomas Avant told the Personnel/Finance Committee that a proposed budget amendment would appropriate $15,065 from water and sewer retained earnings for the Rains Road Pump Station project to cover spare parts and an administrative fee after a revised state bid. He also said the amendment would include insurance proceeds from a police-department automobile accident and a $50,000 check from the Finch Foundation for renovation of the skate park’s half pipe.
Committee Member Scott Styers moved to place the budget amendment on the Briefing agenda; Committee Member Payton Williams seconded. Avant also presented a related capital project ordinance revision to appropriate the same $15,065 for the city's contribution to the Rains Road Pump Station; Styers moved and Williams seconded sending that item to Briefing as well.
The items were advanced for detailed consideration at Briefing due to the time-sensitive nature of the Rains Road work; the transcript records motions to move the items but does not include a roll-call tally on final adoption at this meeting.
