Commissioners approve two budget amendments, add $114,340.27 FEMA payment and expand engineering contract
Summary
The board approved budget amendments 13 and 14, adding a $114,340.27 FEMA disbursement to Fund 209 and increasing the pre-audited contract amount for Withers Ravenel Culver Engineering from $132,654 to $246,994 to allow more work this fiscal year. The motion passed by voice vote.
Savannah, a staff member, presented two budget amendments and asked the board to approve them together. She said budget amendment No. 14 would "include our most recent FEMA disbursement of $114,340.27 into Fund 209" and that the pre-audited contract amount for Withers Ravenel Culver Engineering would be amended from $132,654 to $246,994 so additional portions of the contract can be completed in this fiscal year.
Commissioner Widmer moved to approve both amendments as a single motion; Commissioner Alexander seconded. The chair called for discussion and then a voice vote. The chair declared, "Ayes carry," and the board approved the amendments.
The changes add the FEMA disbursement to the town's designated fund and increase the contract authorization for Withers Ravenel Culver Engineering to cover additional work scheduled in the current fiscal year. The staff presentation did not include a line-item breakdown of the engineering work to be accelerated; those details were not specified in the record.
The board proceeded to the public comment period after the vote. The approved amendments will be reflected in the next set of posted financials and the town's fiscal documents; staff did not provide an exact implementation date during the meeting.
