Vergennes council allocates infrastructure funds; pool allocation cut to $266,125
Summary
The Vergennes City Council approved allocations from its Infrastructure Investment Fund, including $245,212 for a salt shed, $125,000 for paving McDonough Drive and a revised allocation of up to $266,125 for the municipal pool after an amendment passed unanimously.
The Vergennes City Council on July 11 approved a package of allocations from the Infrastructure Investment Fund that directs $245,212 to a planned salt shed, $125,000 to paving McDonough Drive and up to $266,125 to the municipal pool project.
Alderman Ian Huizenga proposed the original allocation that included up to $350,000 for the pool; Alderwoman Sue Rakowski moved to amend that item to limit the pool allocation to up to $266,125. The amendment passed 7-0, and the council then approved the amended full allocation on a 7-0 vote. The decision changes the pool project funding from the initial 'up to $350,000' figure to the smaller 'up to $266,125' cap.
Council members discussed the amendment and financial priorities during the meeting; the city manager has listed a set of shared FY24 goals to accompany capital planning. The council’s vote finalizes the infrastructure allocations and allows staff to proceed with projects authorized by these funds.
