Minutes CASE ~13: <br /> <br /> AMERDMENTS TO THE 1986 G~BRAL FURD BUDGET ~ <br />APPROVAL TO PURCHASE APPROPRIATED CAPITAL OUTLAY ITgMS <br />By: Noel Graczyk, Finance Officer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Public Works Superintendent Merle Mevissen has requested amendments to his <br />Street Maintenance division budget for the purchase of a hydraulic reversible <br />plow and to his Park Fund budget for the purchase of bleachers at the school <br />park. Both of these amendments to the budget can be accomplished without <br />increasing appropriations by reappropriating the capital outlay appropriations <br />between the General Fund and Park Fund. <br /> <br />The Public Works Superintendent has also requested that Council authorize the <br />purchase of the plow, school bleachers, and community park bleachers (an <br />approved appropriation in the Park Fund) in accordance with the quotes <br />received. <br /> <br />Included in the reference material is a summary of the quotes and the proposed <br />resolution amending the budget. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />These budget amendments only reappropriate the current capital outlay <br />appropriations. The appropriations for the snow plow and school bleachers are <br />possible by using the following unused appropriations for items that will cost <br />less then estimated in the budget: water tanker truck - $2,900; park sprayer - <br />$2,500 (this sprayer will not be purchased); bleachers for Central Park - $650. <br />These amendments to the budget require action by the Council. <br /> <br />If Council amends the budget, then it can proceed to approve the purchase of <br />the items in accordance with the quotes that have been received. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />It is recommended that Council adopt the proposed resolution to amend the 1986 <br />General Fund and Park Fund budgets and approve the purchase of the equipment. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Motion to: <br />Adopt Resolution ~86- <br />budgets. <br /> <br />-and- <br /> <br />amending the General Fund and Park Fund 1986 <br /> <br />Approve the purchase of the Central Park bleachers from Stadiums Unlimited <br />for $1,509.00; approve the purchase of bleachers for the school park from <br />Stadiums Unlimited for $640.00; and approve the purchase of the hydraulic <br />reversible plow from Itasca Equipment Company for $4,880.00 <br /> <br />Review Checklist: <br /> <br />Administrator X Chief of Police <br />Attorney Finance Officer X <br />Engineer Public Works Superintendent X <br />Community Development Dir.
