Relationship To Strategic Plan:
Goal 4: The City of Fayetteville will be a highly desirable place to live, work and recreate with thriving neighborhoods and a high quality of life for all residents.
Executive Summary:
Capital Project Ordinance Amendment (CPOA) 2019-20 will appropriate $7,806 in donations for the Linear Park project.
Background:
The current budget for the Linear Park project is $2,156,157. If approved, the revised budget will be $2,163,963.
The City has received donations totaling $7,806. $1,500 of the additional funds will be used for contracted work to replace the statue and bricks that were required to be moved during the replacement of the Lafayette pedestrian bridge. The bridge sustained substantial damage during Hurricane Matthew. The remainder of the funds will be utilized as needed at the direction of the Linear Park Committee.
Issues/Analysis:
None
Budget Impact:
There is no impact to the General Fund as the additional appropriation is funded by private donations.
Options:
1) Adopt Capital Project Ordinance Amendment 2019-20 to appropriate additional funding for Linear Park.
2) Do not adopt Capital Project Ordinance Amendment 2019-20 and provide further guidance to staff.
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that Council move to adopt Capital Project Ordinance Amendment 2019-20 as presented.
