Title
Budget Adjustment: Parks and Recreation’s Request to Rebudget $1,352,406 for the Wheeler Farm Outdoor Education Center
Body
Requested Agenda Item Description: Parks and Recreation has come to an agreement with a new contractor to ensure the Wheeler Farm Outdoor Education Center's construction is completed. The entire contract, which includes both the building proper as well as an ADA-compliant sidewalk from the parking lot to the building, was signed. Now the POs need to be issued. However, the original POs (to the original construction company) were in 2018 and 2019 budget years. When those POs were canceled on April 2, 2021, the available budget lapsed to those budget years, not the current budget year. The annual project true-up process would restore those funds to the available project budget, but Parks and Recreation need to begin construction before the June re-budget process. This request restores the budget to enable Parks and Recreation to issue the POs and notice to proceed to the new construction company. This adjustment request addresses the portion of the POs belonging to the building.
