Committee weighs $12,500 lawnmower purchase, parks miscellany increased
Summary
Committee discussed financing a $12,500 lawnmower (financing $10,000) and increased parks miscellaneous to $7,500 to cover ongoing needs, while holding equipment expense budget at $10,000.
Members discussed capital and routine maintenance needs for parks and general equipment. The committee reviewed a proposed $12,500 purchase of a new lawnmower and indicated a plan to finance $10,000 of that purchase similarly to how the prior skid steer was financed; they kept the overall equipment expense budget at $10,000 to address aging equipment needs.
The committee also increased the parks miscellaneous line to $7,500 to accommodate ongoing maintenance and noted recent concrete work and an upcoming roof project at the park. The financing approach and equipment fund levels will be carried forward into the next draft of the budget for review.
