Equipment reserve fund to cover patrol cars, pool filter and council-room A/V upgrades
Summary
Staff outlined the equipment reserve fund’s 2026–27 plans: patrol car purchases, a $60,000 budget for council-room audio/visual equipment (expected to come in lower), a $60,000 pool filter replacement and $50,000 emergency allocation for equipment failures.
Staff described the equipment reserve fund as the primary source for medium-cost capital items such as patrol cars, computers and audiovisual equipment. "Council room audio and visual upgrade... Budgeted at 60,000," Speaker 2 said, noting the contractual service will be recorded in operations while the equipment itself is drawn from the reserve.
Other listed items included two patrol vehicles planned for 2027, a pool filter replacement estimated at $60,000 and a $50,000 emergency allocation in case of unexpected equipment failure. Speaker 2 said the fund receives transfers from water, sewer and the general fund and that sale-of-asset receipts are variable but were recorded as approximately $9,600 in 2026.
