Title
Consideration of and action on an ordinance to amend the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Budget for the General Fund Athletics and Aquatics Department for Repairs to the Splash Pad.
Body
Summary:
The Splash Pad located at Dow Park is in need of repair. The following components need to be addressed:
• The turtle and rabbit no long spray water.
• Bear Maypool is cracked at the center.
• Bear Maypool is leaning and needs to be re-balanced.
• Once pieces are removed, address additional cracks and aged anchor bases.
The costs to repair the Splash Pad were not included in the FY 2023-2024 Athletics and Aquatics budget. In order to best serve the community, staff would like to make the necessary repairs and ensure the Splash Pad is in working order before the summer months commence. Staff received a quote from Kraftsman in the amount of $26,784.66 to completed the repairs. To fully fund the repairs to the Splash Pad in FY 2023-2024 a budget amendment to the Athletics and Aquatics budget in the amount of $27,500.00 is necessary. The additional appropriation will be funded by the unassigned fund balance of the General Fund, which is available for this purpose.
