Board reallocates $12,000 to cover Herb Landscaping snow-emergency invoice
Summary
The Board approved a $12,000 transfer in General Services to pay a Herb Landscaping invoice tied to a 2026 snow emergency; members clarified transfers shift funds within an existing 7% reduction rather than restoring cuts.
The Board approved a $12,000 transfer from 'other equipment' to 'contracted services' in the Department of General Services to cover a Herb Landscaping invoice related to a 2026 snow emergency. The Chair read the line on the agenda as "Herb Landscaping invoice from 2026 snow emergency."
Board members asked whether the transfer represented a restoration of previously cut budget lines.
