Fiscal Note
The budget amendment contained in this resolution allows for the replacement of playground equipment and surfacing at Sauk Heights Park. Total costs will include $2,200 for removal of burned surface and equipment, $34,890 for the replacement of burned equipment, and $6,980 for installation of new equipment. Insurance proceeds will cover these items, less a $500 deductible, for a total of $2,200 + $34,890 + $6,980 -$500 = $43,570. Remaining costs of $8,700 related to replacement of shredded rubber with a fabric barrier, plus the aforementioned $500 deductible will not be covered by insurance reimbursement. A total of $8,700 + $500 = $9,200 will therefore be covered by existing Parks Division Capital funds. Project #12, “Specific Park Improvements,” of the 2009 Parks Capital Budget would therefore be amended by the following amounts:
CE60-54301-810405 $43,570
CE60-79475-810405 ($43,570)
