R-22-047
RELATIVE TO THE SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION OF $75,000 OF FY2022 UNANTICIPATED REVENUE
INTO FUND 7058 “PARK REHABILITATION EXPENDABLE TRUST FUND”
Chairman Dowd
| don’t think we’re going to have anyone from the city to discuss that but | think everyone is pretty familiar with and I’m
sure Alderman O’Brien is.
Alderman O’Brien
Yes.
Tim Cummings, Economic Development Director
Chairman Dowd Tim Cummings is here.
Just ever so quickly, I'm here to ask for your favorable support of this piece of legislation. It came about the main
thrust of the funds are unanticipated revenue that we got from the sale of an easement off of Amherst Street. I had a
couple of conversations with the Infrastructure Committee and how they'd like to spend those funds. The takeaway
was that they didn't want the money to disappear into the general fund or laps and ultimately wanting to spend it on
long term infrastructure type of improvements. In speaking to a couple of the Directors, it became clear that the St
Andrew's project rehabilitation had been waiting a while and needed some additional assistance and so the $50,000
as outlined brought us pretty far down the path of getting us to the number that was necessary through a couple other
unanticipated revenue sources. We were able to get to the $75,000 and I'm asking for your support this evening so
we can move forward with the St. Andrews Park rehab. Thank you.
Chairman Dowd
Any of the Aldermen have any clarifying questions on this Resolution? Seeing none. I'll open up the public hearing.
