Council weighs asset-management software, fleet replacements and pump-station concerns
Summary
Council discussed adopting an asset-management program, using $15,000 in capital for mapping compliance, possible fleet replacements (three police vehicles and a fire truck) and whether sewer pump-station projects could affect capacity for new development.
Council members discussed asset-management software that could help track public-works assets, sewer infrastructure and code enforcement. CFO Stollenwerk said the city "did get funding to get in compliance, $15,000.00 was in capital," but that funds likely could not be repurposed without checking the ordinance. Council agreed to wait for the JIF review and for staff to confirm which capital lines could be shifted.
The council also flagged near-term fleet needs: the police department requires three replacement vehicles and the fire department has requested a truck. On sewer infrastructure, Councilman Polistina asked which pump station serves Dolphin Avenue; Superintendent Boyd said it was recently upgraded but he was unsure how a new project would tie in and whether additional upgrades would be required.
