Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution authorizes transferring $940,000 of existing appropriation across projects within the Stormwater & Major Streets capital budgets. The transfer is necessary based on anticipated project costs for the strormwater components of Reconstruct Streets ($50k) and Pavement Management ($740k) along with the Darbo Webb project ($50k).
These increases will be offset by decreasing the budget for Strarkweather Coagulant Treatment ($740k) and Storm Sewer System Improvements ($200k).
