Council approves wastewater budget transfer after shop building bids exceed estimate
Summary
Finance Director Jessica Lindsey reported bids for a new wastewater collection shop building were $198,475 over estimate and recommended transferring funds from the treatment division; the council introduced and approved a supplemental budget resolution to reallocate funds within the wastewater fund for the 2025-2027 biennial period.
Finance Director Jessica Lindsey told the council bids for the wastewater collection division's new shop building came in $198,475 over what was budgeted. She explained the treatment division has extra budgeted funds due to timing on the wastewater treatment plant project and recommended transferring those funds to cover the shortfall for the collection shop building.
Councilors introduced the supplemental budget resolution by title and approved it. Lindsey noted the transfer could create a deficit later for the treatment plant depending on the final treatment-plant costs, which are not yet known. The resolution reallocates appropriations within the wastewater fund for the 2025'2027 biennial budget period; no specific dollar sources beyond the inter-division transfer were identified in the meeting presentation.
