Summary

Staff asked to move $35,000 from the PERA tennis-center subsidy into the city's CFG budget to replace a 15-ton heat pump at the McAbee Center; council approved the finance items by voice vote.

Staff asked the council to reallocate $35,000 from a tennis-center subsidy (PERA) to the city's CFG budget to pay for a 15-ton heat-pump replacement at the McAbee Center. "So I'm requesting to move $35,000, which will pay for the heat pump at McAbee out of the PERA budget for the tennis center, and into, CFG's budget to be able to replace that piece of equipment at the McAbee center," the staff member said.

Staff said the tennis-center operations were running a surplus sufficient to cover the transfer and that Mike Crady and other operations staff had been consulted and were on board. Council members asked clarifying questions about unit size and timing; a council member confirmed the items were bundled for the week and a motion was made, seconded and carried by voice vote in the transcript provided.
