RELATIVE TO THE SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION OF $3,650,000 OF FY2021 UNANTICIPATED REVENUE
INTO THE DIVISION OF PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE FACILITY CAPITAL PROJECT
Given its second reading;
MOTION BY ALDERMAN JETTE FOR FINAL PASSAGE OF R-21-190, BY ROLL CALL
ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Jette
So this is part of the new Department of Public Works building that's going to be constructed at the landfill. This is part of
the financing package. This $3,650,000 represents the proceeds from the sale of the Burke Street property. The Burke
Street property was purchased with the idea of converting the existing building there into a Department of Public Works
building. It turned out that it was not suitable for that so the city subdivided part of the land and reserved it for future
expansion of the wastewater treatment plant and also took part of the land and reserved it for conservation land around
the Salmon Brook and that little pond that's in that area. The remaining parcel was recently sold and this is the
$3,650,000. Those proceeds are going to be partly used for the building of this Department of Public Works building,
which was its original purpose. Thank you.
Alderman Dowd
| concur with everything that Alderman Jette said but we amended it last night because it's FY2022 unanticipated
revenue. So the motion before us is to approve the money coming from FY2022. It was amended at the Budget meeting
last night.
President Wilshire
So we would have to approve the amendment here.
Alderman Dowd
Okay.
